Interview over zoom with store manager. The interview took place in late 2020, so it was during covid times. It took about 20 mins, and was more of a friendly chat.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
basic questions like tell me about your experience, how would you describe your own personal style, why do you want to work at H&M
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at H&M (Brisbane) in Oct 2017
Interview
I applied, I interviewed, I accepted the offer. It was a group interview, lasted 1 hour and 25 minutes, we first did an introductory part where we introduced ourselves, said why we were here (i.e. why we applied for H&M) and why we were wearing what we were wearing. We then watched a video about the 7 values of H&M and had to pick a value that most 'fit' us and explained why. Key advice: I picked one but said you can't have one without all of them because they all intertwine and promote each other and aren't mutually exclusive. We then split into 2 groups where we were given different scenarios and as a group we discussed solutions for each scenario whilst 1 person summarised the solution to them at the end. We then gathered together again and used our creativity and teamwork (hint, teamwork is the most important part here) to design a new fashion line using a particular motif with a promotion or deal that came along with it. We used magazine cutouts and pasted them to a poster sheet to present it. Our store preferences were taken down as well as our availability. We got free lollies.
I found it was more important how you said things rather than what you said, you can copy my answers word for word but if you have the emotional range of a teaspoon you won't get far.

Interview
Filled an online application on Indeed. Got an email after a week inviting me to a group interview. They had multiple group interview sessions. I asked to shift mine to another due to some committments. There were about 10 of us in total with 3 interviewers. At first they spoke a bit about H&M and asked us what we knew about the company. Then did an introduction game where we were split in pairs and asked to intrduce our partner, say an interesting fact about them and describe their outfit. Gave us five minutes to talk and then asked us who wanted to go first. I asked my partner and she agreed and we went first but she completely blanked out and couldn't speak much, didn't describe my outfit at all! I thought that I had to make a better impression so I spoke about her and her outfit pretty normally. Others went on and after that was done, they played a video about H&M's values and asked us why these values are important. Just join in to the conversation and be a bit interactive. The next task was drawing "A Perfect Store". They split in into two teams of 5 and gave us five minutes to write/draw a rough picture. We just wrote all the important traits that we thought a good store should have and one person from the team presented it. The last task was a problem solving scenario. They gave both the teams one scenario each and gave us 5 minutes to discuss the solution. I presented it and that was pretty much it. Theysked if we wanted to ask any questions or make any changes to the locations we filled out so we did that and that was it!
After the group interview, I got an email about a week later saying that I got the job and that I needed to send an acceptance email so that they can progress me further to sign the contract.
