I applied online. I interviewed at H&M (Stockholm, )
Interview
The interview process is quite long and time consuming. It involves IQ testing, personality testing with a follow up discussion with a representative from the testing company, an interview day together with other candidates and finally a final interview.
I did not find the process to be tough in terms of difficult questions, but H&M seems to take cultural fit very importantly so make sure to research that. For example, they told me that someone staying after 5 pm at work would not impress managers and that it is more important to be quick and flexible rather than a perfectionist getting everything 100% right.
Be warned that the salary offered is below average.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at H&M
Interview
Multiple stages of interview, long process. It starts with an initial screening by HR. Then up to 4 rounds with hiring manager, then technical interview and third one is cross functional. There is sometimes a fourth and final one with HR. The interviews may also involve presentations, case studies and analytical tests.
Application ~ Assessment which I did well in but got no interview invite despite this. I think it’s unfortunate we spend lots of time to prepare for an assessment when we don’t get considered despite doing well and meeting all requirements
First you had to do logical and personality testing through AON.
Second a HR interview with a focus on your past experiences.
Then if you pass this you go through to the next stage meeting business controllers and doing one more personality interview and a case interview.
