      Sales Assistant Interview

      Apr 4, 2018
      Anonymous employee
      London, England
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at H&M (London, England)

      Interview

      Really relaxed interview. Group of around 12, firstly given some ice breaker questions to ease the nerves. We were then given scenarios of individuals and we had to create a mood board for an outfit for them using old magazines. We did this twice and then spoke about the values of a sales advisor and scenarios such as what to do if a customer... in the group. I did find it difficult to understand how they would assess the individual as it was all group based and the managers were just watching, however, I received a phone call on my way home from the interview asking me to attend a trial shift a week later. I attended the trial shift for an hour and a half which was once again relaxed and more focused on seeing how you worked individually. I then received a call a few days later stating that I had got the job.

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at H&M (Leeds, England)

      Interview

      Group interview. 10 candidates in a small dingy room. Poorly organised and interviewers showed very little interest or skill in conducting an effective interview. Were in pairs for the whole thing, no way to stand out and other people taking credit for your ideas. No observation of how you handled planning and answering the tasks in your pairs, interviewers just sat there having a chat.
