I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IKEA (New York, NY) in Apr 2025
Interview
It was a great experience interviewing for the Visual Merchandising role. As someone who has worked with the company before, it felt good to reconnect and express my interest in returning. Alvin was warm, professional, and made the conversation flow naturally. I truly appreciated the opportunity.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The one thing they asked me was: " why did you leave the company, and why do you want to come back now?"
Had to do an entire day of interview in person, with three assignments (one at home before the interview, one group, and one individual). They offered to give feedback after they rejected me. I didn't get one when I asked for it.
