Interview
They give you a ridiculous retail mathematics examination which not enough time is given for.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions became more complex as they wanted you to compare percentages (which you must calculate) comparing different stocks and item numbers within a certain month or year all within one question! on average, the questions take approx 2-3 minutes to thoroughly calculate yet they expect you to provide the right answer in 30 SECONDS! insane!

Interview
I interviewed for the Assistant Buyer role at Neiman Marcus, and the process was fairly structured but engaging. It started with a phone screening with HR, where they asked about my background, experience in retail or merchandising, and interest in the company. After that, I had a video interview with a hiring manager, which focused more on my analytical skills, vendor negotiation experience, and understanding of luxury fashion trends.

Question 1
Describe a time you had to negotiate with a vendor. How did you handle it?
Fine interview, done virtually and in person. Hiring team was pleasant, but ultimately decided it was not a good fit for me moving forward. Definitely a great company to work for.
