I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IKEA (Conshohocken, PA) in Nov 2018
Interview
I submitted my application via LinkedIn which was a very easy process! I wasn't required to create a job profile, so it took no time at all. About 2 weeks later, I was notified to participate in a phone interview. The Recruiter was on time for the call and guaranteed follow up within a week. A few days later, I received confirmation for next steps with another Recruiter. The conversation went well and I was asked for my availability to set up a final interview. The Recruiting Team was very engaging and helpful with coordinating interviews/meeting the team. Such a great candidate experience!
I had a short call with a recruiter , for 30 minutes. They provided feedback fast, I was not selected. Also they required a presentation on how you align with their corporate values.
