I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at H&M in Mar 2022
Interview
I was applying for h&m home. The interview was a bit hard (or I was just not so well prepared). They really asked questions like "what are your strengths and weaknesses" and to tell about yourself. after 15 quite long minutes, the interview was taken to the floor, where you actually had to interact with customers. they gave you a scenario, and you had to help the customer to find the right object for their home and convince them about it. It was a bit odd as I've never had an interview like this
I applied online. I interviewed at H&M (Fairfax, VA)
Interview
Great process and team, connecting with everyone felt very easy. I had some behavioral questions and some about my experience. Ultimately they decided to move forward with someone else. I would recommend giving it a try.
Very easy interview with one other person who applied. Asked about how you might handle a difficult customer, who you are, etc. Second interview was basically just the job offer and signing papers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you handle a difficult customer? What is one thing you noticed in our store that you would improve?
It's a group interview and in mine there were x4 other people. We introduced ourselves and got split into teams to complete a task on their values. Then we were split into different teams and were given a hypothetical customer who wanted help with their outfit - we had to create an outfit accordingly therefore roamed around the store to find clothing items that fit the brief. Afterwards, we explained why we chose those clothes and then were asked x2 competency-based questions.
