Hi can't give exact questions what you might be asked just for fairness for any other candidates applying for the same jobs ok. Majority of Tesco's has Costa as there cafe as they leased the space to highest bidder.


I will give you some examples of things they might ask you at your café interview....
1) what if any experience do you have working within a cafe environment ( don't panic as experience isn't always required)
2) what makes you the best candidate for the job
3) why did you apply for the job in Tesco
4) are you flexible with the days and hour you can work ( you might have applied for a weekend position but they might offer you alternative hours and days incase they fill up the weekend position so be prepared to be offered something else if you are successful).


At the end you will be given a opportunity to ask them questions so have a few written down to ask them okay.

In the meantime you can still apply for other jobs in Tesco whilst you wait for your interview to take place and await your outcome.


Good luck

Tesco team leader and stand in supervisor as required.

I think that as long as you have done a good interview then having lack of exercise won't matter as they will still employ you are give you the necessary training.
Training is not always required as they will provide it.


Hopefully you have thought about applying for other vacancies in Tesco just as a backup for perhaps not getting the cafe job.
