I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zara (London, England) in May 2015
Interview
Meeting at Regent Street in London mid May 2015, around 25 candidates shown up. We were shown two videos then had a chat as described in other reviews. I was not a fan of 'raise your hands to answer my questions' which made me feel like at school and I didn't think anyone really remembered who did raise hands and who didn't.
If someone came to the meeting prepared it was a waste of 15 min, so I think Inditex would do better if actually spoke to each candidate for a minute longer instead of showing videos and asking obvious questions about customer service and when company was founded etc. Overall the atmosphere was ok. Then a minute of a chat face to face with one of the recruiters, nothing too challenging really. I don't imagine many people being unsuccessful at this stage.
In a weeks time got a late evening phone call about in store interview next day, unfortunately not about the position I applied to and wanted the most but still will attend and see how it goes and will update if I was offered the job.
lengthy and tedious, i don't see that a fashion sense is a requirement to gain employment. was ghosted as far as follow-up communication. did not ask many questions about past retail experience
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
if a customer was having trouble finding something right infront their face how would i respond
super casual, just stand in front of a store,
it does not show the exact job title on job posting
like, job posting mentioned that hiring the full time sales, they actually hire the 2 months contract sales and part time
Visited the store and inquired about hiring opportunities. I was connected with the hiring manager and completed a straightforward in-person interview. The process was professional, welcoming, and provided insight into the role.
