      Paramus, NJ
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at IKEA (Paramus, NJ) in Jan 2026

      Interview

      The manager was very kind and welcoming from the very beginning, making the interview pleasant and comfortable. Alisha took the time to clearly explain the interview protocol and process, provided clear instructions with patience, and answered all of my questions and concerns. It didn’t even feel like an interview, but rather a pleasant introductory conversation.

      Question 1

      Most of the questions were about experiences and values. she asked me how would I treat a new coworker?

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at IKEA (Portland, OR)

      Interview

      Phone interview then in person interview. Many questions were about dealing with pressure - seemed more appropriate for higher level job. Long delay between application and interview. Weirdly serious. It was unclear how the interview questions related to the job in question.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What was a circumstance at work where you solved a problem and how.
