I applied online. I interviewed at H&M (Estocolmo, ) in Mar 2012
Interview
Phone interview, mainly quite basic questions but it's really important to prepare. Also expect questions on future trends and salary expectations.
After a 3x30 interview at the head office, focusing on salesmanship, resume/background and fashion/trends. Be prepared to have examples on everything i your cover letter and that you might say during the interview.
Final interview approx 60 minutes. personality, trends, buying strategies.
