I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Chanel
Interview
It's hard to get into Chanel, Inc, and it usually takes 1 year to go through the whole process from the first interview to the background check. If you do not have enough sales experiences you basically can not get your foot into the door.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me how you are going to sell this piece right now.
Fairly long process, met with multiple managers, hiring took about 2 months. Questions were pretty basic, discussed long term goals, experience in fashion, and relationship building skills. Overall, this is pretty standard for prestigious luxury brands, Chanel took their time vetting everyone to ensure they were right for the position

I applied online. I interviewed at Chanel (Frankfurt am Main) in Nov 2023
Interview
Erst online ca. 1 Stunde, dann 3 Wochen später vor Ort mit zwei Damen auch 1,5 Stunden, es war von beiden Seiten sehr angenehm, habe das Angebot angenommen.
Es waren typischen Fragen und man muss sich etwas vorbereiten, ich würde nicht einfach so hin gehen ohne etwas vorher nicht vorbereiten.
