Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 8 weeks)
Applied online, received a phone call about 6 weeks later asking if I was still interested in the position. I said I was and was given a brief phone interview on the spot with the recruiter. I was then asked to go to store and I had an interview with store manager and assistant manager. I filled out background check and credit consent. Received offer about 10 days later.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
None needed, offer was what I asked for. Investigate similar positions with other companies, ask for slightly more, company is generous compared to much of retail apparel industry.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
Started with a phone interview, applied for a desktop support job, so they naturally asked me some technical questions. Plus also some general questions such as "Are you working now?", "why did you leave your last job?"
Thankfully got past the first stage. Was invited a couple days later to attend a interview at their main HQ in London. I didn't get the job in the end, but i'm glad i had the opportunity to go there. The office was simply amazing! The technology they use is very up to date (iPads, Macs. PCs. iPhones, etc). It was a very pleasent place to be even for just an interview!! Open plan office and everything was designed beautifully.
The interview at HQ consistended of a 1 to 1 interview. Testing your personality, and team skills. No technical tests, as most of that was done over the phone. There is a written apptitude test. These are questions which test your reading, and comprehension skills, and your mathematical skills. Working with fractions and percentages. There is also a group interview. You are put in together with other applicants and you are given a scenario which you will need to sort out as a group. There is no right or wrong answer to this. it is mainly to see how you interact and communicate.
Staff are very nice and happy. Most are very pretty too!! Just a brilliant place to work, as long as you don't annoy management.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in New York, NY (took 2 weeks)
I was referred by my college and went in for an interview soon after. First I was welcomed by the HR manager who asked me several questions about my resume and gave me a questionnaire in several languages to test my language skills and knowledge of the brands/company. After that, I met the department managers and we continued to talk about my work experience and skills. They called me back after a week asking to come for a video conference with the headquarters in London. The manager in London gave me and the other candidates an introduction of the company and asked us a few questions about our interest in the brand. A great experience and atmosphere overall.

Interviewed Aug 2010 in Northbrook, IL (took 1+ week)
The interview process was pretty average. The interviewer was friendly and asked fairly easy questions if you have been involved in retail. Burberry, being a luxury brand, focuses heavily on clientling so have some ideas on that. The questions are standardized off a sheet and some are situational.
