Why did you leave your job at John Lewis?
If a manager doesn't like you they will do anything to get rid of you. From bullying and frustrating you. If you're someone with mental health it will more than likely get worse. Then you will be punished for being sick. At the same time the wages are much lower than other companies not worth it. Just good company to put on your cv but not to work for.Asked 20 March 2017

What are the rules on having dyed coloured hair?
There is nothing in the business dress guide about coloured hair (I'm looking to do so haha) however I'd say not anything super bright and un natural, like bright blues, greens ect- however I do have a darker red dye at the minute which is fine, and I would think that oranges and darker purples should be fine aswell, its more branch and manager specific reallyAsked 6 July 2017

What is the interview process like at John Lewis & Partners?
Very tedious interview, I was applying for vehicle technician position and the amount of tests they put you through even before the actual interview day is so tedious and waste of time... Its like you're applying for 80k+ a year job... Then at the interview you've gotta do more set tests. I'm the end I'm glad I got an offer elsewhere and not wasted more time waiting another 3 weeks for answer.Asked 4 April 2017
