The interviewer would like to get to know that you have a general idea of the H&M culture and how you see yourself within it. Make sure to do some research ahead of time so that you can speak, at least generally, about what makes the H&M culture unique.
"From what I've read, the H&M Spirit captures the way your team lives out its shared values. I find those values very compelling: one team; belief in people; entrepreneurial spirit; constant improvement; being cost-conscious; keeping it simple; and being straightforward and open-minded. These are all values I share and that have guided me on my career path, so I look forward to bringing them to bear for H&M."

H&M has well-defined values: Believing in people, entrepreneurial spirit, constant improvement, being cost-conscious, straightforward and open-minded, and keeping it simple. When those values join together, they create a sense of culture that is unique to H&M. It seems like a positive workplace in which I can thrive, do my very best work, and be myself.
