I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IKEA in Feb 2016
Interview
They are really friendly; however, the interview process has many steps. They can ask many questions and they will do a very serious background check so always be honest. Make sure you know the IKEA values because they are looking for people who take these values seriously. Good salary range and great benefits.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at IKEA
Interview
I had two interviews. The first, I had to prepare a swot analysis for, and the second was more of a standard interview. They seemed to like that I focused on small details within the department rather just the wider IKEA image.
