The process took 1 day. I interviewed at IKEA (Canton, MI) in Dec 2011
Interview
I was asked a lot of IKEA values questions. Basically if you answer the question with the same ikea value mentioned in the question, your golden. They love it if you know the ikea values and all that stuff. Most managers avoid those questions because they know that you can just recite the ikea hand book to them. My interview went really well. I didnt get the position because someone already in the recovery department wanted the position.
Virtual interview. Questions come up, you get some time to answer. Around 4 questions total. If you’re successful you then move onto a call with a manager where you discuss more questions and company culture
