I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kotn (London, England) in Sep 2025
Interview
Had three interviews. First one was with the store manager, second and third with somebody in HQ. They asked pretty general questions about management style, leadership capabilities and KPI’s. I’d say it’s important to prepare a bit and educate yourself on the brand. In the third interview, there was no definite answer on if they would contact me after. I was waiting and waiting for two weeks to hear back from them. I eventually had to reach out myself.

If there is anything you could change visual merchandise related to improve the physical store, what would it be?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Kotn (Toronto, ON)
Interview
It was a quick 15 minute call with managers. Asked average questions, mostly to get to know you. I did not receive an offer even though they were impressed with my CV.
Did a couple of interviews, everyone very friendly. Not a stressful process at all. More of a conversation. Prep a lot on history, concept and analysis, but we mainly talked in general about my work experience and how it will fit in the brand
