Harrods 2014 Temporary Summer Jobs

Just had my telephone interview and have now been invited along to their Assessment Centre. I was wondering if anyone has had any past experience of this, what is it like etc. Also what is it like working for Harrods on this shift

Have you booked a day for your group interview? I've been invited too but the link to go and book it isn't working... has anyone else had this problem?

For the icebreaker do you have to stand up in front of everyone? I hate speaking to a group :frown: Also, what was the group exercise like?

I'd be grateful if you could let me know!

You have to stand up to the group

We broke off into smaller groups and had little discussions and the assessor went round and had a listen
