Attended an open evening
Was invited to an interview
Really enjoyed both and left with a really positive impression of IKEA
Then they never bothered contacting me. How hard is it to send an e-mail saying my application was not successful
They are clearly just another big company who treat people badly.
A vile company
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IKEA (Adelaide) in Oct 2017
Interview
Applied through recruitment agent, there was an initial screening process through email interview. The main assessment day consisted of group activities and a main interview where mainly STAR questions were asked. Make sure you look at STAR interview examples, very similar to identical questions popped up. Overall the process was quite relaxing compared to other group interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time when your previous manager asked you to perform something that seems dangerous.
I applied online. I interviewed at IKEA (Schaumburg, IL)
Interview
Applied online, got a phone interview and then was invited to a hiring event and got hired that day so it was very long and exhausting but worth it. They were organized. I had my first interview which revolved around basic questions, they asked what I wanted to do. The second interview was with my future manager who asked more specific questions based on the job I said I was most interested in. I got hired that day.
