    Jack Wills Group Interview
    I was called about a temporary summer job group interview for Jack Wills. My interview is on Friday. I was wondering if any one online has had an interview at jack wills and could give me any tips? What sort of questions may be asked? How would i answer them?
    Thanks

    Hi! I worked at jack wills over Christmas and had a group interview I was surprised at how many people were there, there was about 40 of us, and we were split into smaller groups win a member of staff who worked there.
    I'm not sure whether your process will be the same, but within our groups that staff member questioned us on things such as what we study and hobbies. At the same time we had to make towers out of newspaper?! The manager of the store also came round whilst we were doing this and asked similar questions also
    We then had to create outfits for people such as kate and William, and Caggie and spencer, and then present these to the rest of the people at the interview.
    They've also been known to ask random questions like if you were a biscuit what would you be and things like that.
    Make sure you dress smart, but a nice shirt and jeans will do, and most people wore at least one thing from jack wills, but that isn't necessary...just don't annoy them by wearing hollister!
    I hope that has helped in some way, and good luck!

    Thank you for the advice! I just had the interview and it was actually so much fun. First we had to partner up with someone we didn't know and learn things about them such as name, school, favourite movie, favourite artist, favourite jack wills item and embarrasing crush. My partner was really friendly and nice. There was only a group of like 11 people so it was quite easy. Then we had to design a poster for a party for Jack Wills with a group of people and present it. I had a really good time. There was no hard questions or anything. We had to fill in a sheet with our availability and why we wanted to work at jack wills. It was nice and easy really!
    However, I don't think i got the job, i don't think i quite had the confidence or stood out enough. But it was goood for the expierence.
