I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gucci (Milano) in Apr 2021
Interview
The process took more than one months. The overall experience was positive.
So the interview consisted of 3 stages:
1. 45 minutes phone interview in English with hr managed by an external agency, where they ask you many questions about your experience, education, volunteering experience. After two weeks I received a positive feedback from Gucci HR and an invitation to the assessment day.
2. Virtual Assessment Day: Personal presentation + 2 case studies to do in a group of 8 people.
3. Interview with two managers. Only general questions were asked about the motivation and knowledge about Gucci.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Gucci (Milano) in Apr 2018
Interview
Very in-depth interview about my professional and personal experiences. I was asked a lot of behavioral questions and nothing about my skills and knowledge. In general, it was very intricate.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gucci (Singapore)
Interview
First interview was professional thorough and well structured and gave me a positive mindset for the role and the company.
The second interview was then carried out by the department head and almost had me walking out in horror. They asked questions which they then chose to answer themselves with a sarcastic and demeaning manner, didn't listen to any answers that were made and had clearly made no attempt to want to consider me a candidate for the role.
This experience led me to never want to work for the company, and having gained feedback from individuals suffering underneath this individual I am so happy the opportunity to do so didn't present itself.
HR should have a thorough investigation into the interview tactics for the department and better gain feedback from those interviewed how they felt it went
