Just be chatty and offer to work long hours for little pay and you’re good to go. It doesn’t matter if you’re an experience photographer or not, they will train you.

The interview process was primarily focussed around the pay & the workload during peak months, it seems to be a company who doesnt quite care about quality of work and focus on cheap labour for the trade off of giving people "experience" within the photography sector. Arguably you could gain more experience from just working in a shop part time and freelance photographing events for free to gain clientele. There was not much interest in the photographers understanding or love for the skill and i can see how this company could kill someones enjoyment for photography
