I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at IKEA in Jul 2010
Interview
Initially applied online by filling out the massive form and attaching a covering letter. After several weeks I was called to a one on one interview which went well and was asked generic interview questions like what would you do in a certain situation and what makes you want to work for Ikea etc. Then after three weeks was called back to second interview 4 weeks after initial interview. this one on one interview went well and was told at that point I would hear by the end of the next week. I didn't hear anything and had assumed I didn't get the job and even emailed the generic HR email for feedback which I never got. However, 3 weeks after second interview I was called and offered the job with pay in the middle of the banding. hopefull that if I prove myself this can be revised quickly as the pay is not great at all.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you convince co-workers to go with your idea
Chiamata online con il responsabile che mi ha illustrato il ruolo e ha chiesto il mio interesse per il ruolo. Disponibili e molto gentili. Mi è stato illustrata la paga, l'orario lavorativo, il servizio mensa e benefit aziendale.
L’expérience a été enrichissante, mais aussi très exigeante :
Entretien téléphonique avec le responsable RH
Test de design à réaliser
Entretien avec le manager du département design
Entretien en ligne avec le responsable international
Et enfin, un workshop test sur place
Après toutes ces étapes, ma candidature n’a pas été retenue.
