      Visual Merchandiser Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at H&M in Nov 2014

      Interview

      The process took 6+ weeks and a total of 4 interviews. The first was an initial 10 minute phone interview. Fairly routine, easy questions. At the end of the phone interview, I was asked to come for an in-person interview the next week. This interview took almost 2 hours, and was with 3 different members of management. This interview was tough, as the people were pretty cold and it was an awkward interview where they asked me a question off a piece of paper & sat in silence as they wrote down what I was saying. It was intimidating that they were so unfriendly. Something that stood out compared to other companies that I've interviewed with. A series of questions about my background, experience, and walking around the store to critique the displays and windows. The racks were way overcrowded and the store looked chaotic, and it was challenging to give feedback because I didn't want to be too negative, but I also wanted to be honest. A week later, I was called back for a 3rd interview with the store manager. This was a pretty short, easy 30 minute interview. Again, I had to critique the windows and in-store displays. They called back a few days later and asked me to come in for a 4th interview the next week. The final interview was with a recruiter and district management. They went on for awhile about H&M's future as a company and their roles in the company. After this, I had 15 minutes to pull 2 outfits for a mannequin based on an inspiration photo of looks they had given me. This task ended up being difficult as the store was a complete mess, busy with foot traffic, and it was hard to locate items on the floor in only 15 minutes of time. I dressed the mannequin and was told to expect a call or email within the next two weeks. Exactly two weeks later I received a rejection email. Frustrating experience and took way too long.

      I applied online. I interviewed at H&M (London, England) in May 2026

      Interview

      Pretty straightforward interview with a welcoming team. Store manager asked me about my experience and tried to get to know me. Quite transparent about role and requirements and they give feedback which is really good.

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at H&M (Hamburg)

      Interview

      Es wirkte sehr so, als sei die Entscheidung gegen mich bei der Managerin schon vorher fest gewesen und die Stimmung war einfach insgesamt seltsam. Mir wurde direkt zu Beginn gesagt, ich hätte für die Stelle noch nicht genug Erfahrung im VM und an dieser Meinung konnte ich auch mit keinem noch so tollen, wirklich engagierten Interview mehr etwas ändern. Meine sämtlichen Erfahrungen waren natürlich vorher in dem CV und Portfolio gelistet, auf dessen Grundlage ich auch eingeladen wurde. Für mich war dieses IV also leider eine reine Zeitverschwendung. Ich arbeite nun in einer höheren Position für ein anderes Unternehmen welches mich, mein Studium und meine Skills sehr wertschätzt und bin letztendlich froh über diesen Ausgang. Vielleicht wurde hier einfach nicht richtig zwischen externer HR und Store Management (Hamburg, Flagship) kommuniziert. Die anderen Mitarbeiter:innen, die ich in meiner 15 minütigen Wartezeit auf den Termin kennenlernen konnte, waren dafür aber wirklich super freundlich und wirkten auch soweit zufrieden.
