I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Burberry in Sep 2016
Interview
I applied online and was contacted by the general manager one week later. We scheduled an in-person interview date. On that day, I met with both the GM and then with the assistant manager. The interview lasted a little over 1 hour. Afterwards, I was told that I would receive a call within a week if Burberry decided to move on with the hiring process. I received a call 5 days later. The manager said the regional manager wanted to schedule a phone interview with me. I had the phone interview two days later and it lasted for approximately 30 minutes. This interview was shorter but more in-depth. The regional manager seemed very curious about my clientele experience and what it meant to me. The day after the phone interview, I was called again by the GM and was offered the job.

Question 1
Where I would like to go with my career and future aspirations
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Burberry (London, England)
Interview
Had a phone call and video interview the was asked to attend a group interview. When I turned up it was empty and it turned out the HR rep cancelled and didn’t let me know, then when I emailed to ask what was happening she said she’d mistyped my email. She asked me to reschedule which I did, and she said she’d confirm the date and time the same week. I never heard back from her.
Pretty easy going. Everyone was welcoming and friendly and it wasn't a "scary" process at all. Nothing came as a surprise and they asked very role/industry-focused questions. It wasn't drawn out either which I appreciated.
