    Company Overview: Asda has evolved over the past century from when Hindell’s Dairies was started in the 1920s. The name ‘Asda’ was the result of re-branding in 1965, and since then Asda has been serving millions of customers. They are now a market leader in the supermarket industry, aiming the pricing of their wares at people with low to medium budgets.

    Asda also offer clothing and home ware ranges alongside their groceries in-store, and offer customers a range of buying options such as online shopping and delivery. Most recently Asda offers a ‘Click and collect’ service where customers can buy groceries online and collect them in store.

    How to apply

    At their website http://www.asda.jobs there is a link at the top of the page specifically for Graduates. Clicking on this brings you to some helpful information on working at Asda as a graduate.

Clicking on each one will bring you to a summary of what you can expect from working at Asda in that type of position. If you like the sound of working there, there is a ‘Search and Apply’ button on the top right of the page.

You will then need to register on the site for a list of all current vacancies.
