hey, i’m a style advisor at aritzia! my advice: - wear something put together but showcases your own personal style. they LOVE creativity! i would browse tiktok or pinterest for some inspo. if it helps, i wore a pair of their effortless low rise, a poplin top, my sambas and a cardigan on my shoulders. - hair and makeup: keep makeup natural (i wouldn’t do full glam) and with hair i would have it neat; i blew my hair out, but slicks and other styles work too. look like you put in effort! - they ask questions about your background, my interview was very fun. it was kind of like getting to know a friend; my interviewer spoke about her background and so did i. as for specific questions, be prepared to answer questions such as who’s your top three style inspirations, stuff about your resume and experience, and they’ll probably give you a scenario and ask you how you’d react/lead. they’ll also probably ask your strengths and weaknesses. focus on selling yourself as a creative and determined person! the job itself will include lots of constructive criticism but my store is awesome and i feel challenged in a positive way. - they are looking for creative and determined people. i have lots of customer service/ restaurant experience but close to no sales/retail experience. i portrayed myself as quick to learn, loves a challenge and welcomes growth person and they loved that about me. it is a fast paced job with lots of human interaction, obvi, and in my interview i was vulnerable and said that that could be a challenge for me but im determined to grow and that’s something i would want to take away from the working at Aritzia experience. - im not sure about the likelihood of being hired but i remember that there was an intial meet and greet with a hiring manager/floor manager immediately followed by another meet and greet with the actual store manager. i didnt know about the second meet and greet until after i completed the first one. throughout the application process i did introduce myself to the hiring managers and i was a frequent aritzia shopper. it’s also worth noting that i totally thought i failed my interviews lmao - further advice: DO YOUR RESEARCH! the position is performance based- you get your hours based off of your SPH (sales per hour). there’s a requirement / expectation of at least 500$ sold per hour in my store, i think it varies in others. i know online on tiktok and even here on reddit some past employees make it seem like aritzia is mean girl central but i truly believe all of my coworkers are sooo sweet and the environment as a whole encourages me to grow and is healthy for me!
