Interview Details –
It was job fair style - the usual questions done as a quick one on one with a district manager, and then a group interview of 3 prospective employees with manager and assistant. Just be perky and happy - it's a children's store. They want to hear that you're good with kids and that you love selling. POSITIVE ATTITUDE! TEAM PLAYER! all that stuff.
This job totally sucked. Not worth it unless you're like my co-workers who spent more than their entire paycheck buying lego. one perk is 25% off all lego and 2 or 4 times a year 50% off for employees. that's about as much as they'll care about you though.
Interview Question – describe your personality in one word. Answer this quickly. the guy next the me took almost a minute to come up with 'spontaneous' which was pretty much a bitter joke. He didnt get the job. I answered something like 'bubbly'. They adores this response, smiles all around. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – no negotiations - you either accept their terms or find another job.

Interview Details – My interview was for the brick specialist position in a new retail store. Lego had a hiring fair outside its store location. First, they had us fill out the application and then they interviewed us on-site. The interview itself was very informal. There were two interviewers that were from other stores, and asked many situational and experience questions that focused on customer service and working with others. You will be called back for a 2nd interview if you made it past the first group one.
Interview Question – Have you every worked with someone you did not get along with? How did you handle it? Answer Question

Interview Details –
Standard programmer interview. Initial phone test to make sure of basic competencies, then an in-person interview with the development staff that involved questions being bounced around and copious whiteboard use.
The one odd bit was being asked to build a model out of LEGO that best expressed me, using a standard set of random pieces. That was kind of fun. It was done separate from the group interview, with the HR person.
Interview Question – Make a LEGO model that best represents yourself. (it was weird - not the kind of question you prepare for) Answer Question

Interview Details – First phone interview with 2 HR people: walk through CV, why Lego, most important issues facing the business. Got through but was advised to be more succinct in the next interview. Then an interview in the office with the line manager and one HR. HR asked for examples related to the required competencies, line manager was interested in the practical aspects of how would I approach the job - that was very down-to-earth and detailed, how would you gather information, what changes would you like to make in the website and why, etc. Was dinged with feedback that I was overqualified. Very practical just-get-it-done culture.
Interview Question – What changes would you make to the website and why? Answer Question
