I had one yesterday. They asked me to tell them a bit about myself then The first thing they asked me was what I thought of the store as I came into it and what I would do to improve the store or sainsburys as a whole.

Then it was just more of the multiple choice questions like on the internet application except this time you had to explain why you chose that answer. Then afterwards it was just a chat about hours and pay and stuff. That was it really.

what do you know about sainsburys? this question important for them

I wouldn't worry too much about the DVD section. The first part is just clips and what is wrong in the clips it is basically common sense like a spilt bottle or wrong food label or something. The second part is maths most of which was very basic with only one relatively hard question.

After that someone will come in and speak to you. I got asked what I thought Sainsbury's tried to do different so be prepared for something along those lines just saying it is one of Britains leading supermarkets and quality of products and customer service is what it focuses on delivering.
