I attended the recruitment night in Cardiff LUSH store. I expected there to be twenty or thirty people there - there were WAY more than I was imagining! The queue to enter the store was halfway down the street. On entering, we were given an introduction to the role, before being split into groups, where staff members demo'ed products before we tested them on our assigned partners. We were then told to find the perfect product for our partners. This was followed by a 1 on 1 sit down with a member of staff, where we explained why we picked a particular product for our partners. We were then offered trial shifts - I decided to take another job with a different company, and let them know I would not be attending. The interview really gives you an idea of what being a sales assistant really entails, but honestly it felt fairly generic. We were not assessed on our demos, and it was honestly waaaay too crowded to actually work effectively. The one-on-ones made it really clear that they weren't excited about you coming to interview there - from what I've heard, this isn't how they treat you once you're staff, but it was fairly obvious that you were just another applicant to them.
