1. How would you handle a situation where your Zara supervisor did not properly communicate information to you?
How to Answer
Others don't always communicate with you in the style that you would prefer. Talk to the interviewer about a time when you have handled a supervisor who does not interact with you in a way that you like or that is clear to you.
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"Whenever I have had a supervisor who does not properly communicate with me, I first try to learn their style of communication and emulate it. I also try to ask a lot of questions and document instructions in writing as much as possible in order to make sure I'm understanding."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"I try to be independent and find as many answers as possible on my own. As much as I would love to always work with supervisors who are great communicators, that is not always a realistic ask. I also try to repeat instructions just to verify that I'm hearing and interpreting what the supervisor really wants."

3. What are your salary expectations?
How to Answer
The best way to discuss your salary expectations is to use your current earnings as an example. Be open, and honest. Transparency is the best choice when salary based questions arise.
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"Currently, I earn a base salary of $45,000 per year plus a potential 20% annual bonus. Last year my earnings were $52,000, and I would like to stay in the same range or gain a slight increase. According to my research, this seems consistent with the market."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"I would like to earn slightly above where I am now. Currently, I make $25/hour plus benefits and a 10% commission on all sales. My target income for the coming year is $65,000. If that is out-of-range for this position, I would hope we could discuss alternative benefits and/or a path to reach that salary goal."
Written by Michelle Clark
4. How do you manage a large workload?
How to Answer
Start off your answer by clarifying you never let a large workload stress you out. Each morning you review your tasks using a task manager application (if you do not have one I suggest google searching 'task manager application' and giving one a try). Continue to discuss how you complete each task by priority level and, before you know it, your large workload is completed.
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"When I have a large workload on my plate, I do not stress over the tasks that are in front of me. Rather, I make a simple plan of which tasks are a high priority and which tasks are a low priority. The higher priority tasks, I complete first. Through this system, I am able to focus on my tasks individually, rather than stress out by the multitude of tasks ahead of me."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"I work best when I have a large workload because it keeps me active, keen, and attentive to the project at hand. I also use Trello to keep my team and I on task."
Written by Michelle Clark

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018

First, it's huge, so it holds absolutely everything I need during a workday, plus it has clean, modern lines that present a professional look. I always feel very put together when I carry it and I get tons of compliments on it."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"I think my favorite Zara product this season would be my hooded faux fur jacket. It feels sassy and modern, so I love the way it looks and the way I feel when I wear it.

7. Rate your communication skills from 1-10 with proper examples backing your given rating.
How to Answer
On a scale of 1-10, how skilled are you in communication? Why did you choose that particular rating for yourself?
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"I rate my communication skills as a 9/10 as I will, on occasion, have times when I am not as clear as I would like to be. My supervisor and co-workers will attest to my clear and concise communication skills. Because I am an open leader, my team will let me know if I need to clarify anything."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"I will rate myself an 8.5 because I consider myself a strong communicator. It is the foundation of all success in business. I am always striving to be a better communicator so I leave the rest of the scale as an aspirational measure."

8. How do you deal with distracting coworkers who stand in the way of your progress?
How to Answer
Even the most well-meaning coworkers can distract you from getting things done at work from time to time. The funny and entertaining coworkers who like to chat online and send YouTube videos are often the ones who can get in the way of your productivity if you let them. How do you respond? Show off your ability to set professional boundaries, when needed.
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"I typically just set a kind, but clear, boundary and tell my coworker that I need to focus at the moment. I will offer an alternate time for a catch-up, over lunch for example. It is important for the sake of workplace culture to set aside time to be social with coworkers, so I usually just let them know when I'll be available for a quick break in the day."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"If I have a distracting co-worker, I will highlight the distraction right away while remaining kind. I feel it's always best to nip issues in the bud before they get out of control. Overall, I'm very good at setting personal and professional boundaries, so this has never been much of an issue for me. I've found that if I'm clear that my time is currently allocated to another task, people respect that and are happy to catch up and be social at another specified time."

This is the kind of environment I'd like to be part of."

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"I once worked at a locally owned shop where the owner was very demanding. When the owner would walk into the store, employees would announce over their headset system that the owner was in the building, so that everyone could be prepared for his entrance into their department. The owner had great intentions; however, his people skills were a little rough. I could see that he meant well, and I recognized that he wanted to do a lot of good things. When we interacted, I always took his feedback with the understanding that he didn't mean things as harshly as he might say them."

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018

"Experiencing a setback is always disappointing, and can be a bit disheartening, but I understand that it happens from time to time. If I experience a major setback, I will take a few moments to debrief with my manager and discuss what I could have done differently. Then, I move on!"
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"Setbacks happen no matter what, and for that reason I try not to let them affect me emotionally in the least. I am a pragmatic thinker and stay focused despite challenges that come my way. I once had a colleague who described setbacks as "forward fumbles," which is a philosophy I have internalized and try to share with others. What looks in the moment like a setback can often, in retrospect, be a catalyst for change or an inadvertent step toward a successful outcome you weren't even able to imagine."

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example

Written by Michelle Clark
17. At Zara, we pride ourselves on being resourceful. When have you been able to resolve a problem in your workplace?
How to Answer
Problem-solving and dispute resolution are fundamental skills to possess. Display to Zara that you are capable of problem-solving within the workplace.
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"In my most recent position we had a consistent problem with employees showing up late for their shifts or calling in sick at the last minute. Rather than the typical documenting and reprimanding style, I decided to track the results of an accountability reward system. For 180 days, my employees received a reward for coming to work 10 minutes early. Also, for every month with zero sick days, a bonus was added. In the end, we awarded those with perfect attendance a $600 bonus. The bonuses cost us less money than the cost of lowered productivity due to absent employees. The program was a success, and upper management chose to keep it implemented for another six months. We will re-assess in December, but it seems to be working very well. If I were to be hired, I'd bring that same sense of problem-solving and positive reinforcement to the Zara team."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"Currently as assistant manager, I resolve problems on a daily basis. The most recent resolution process I was a part of included a customer complaint about an allergic reaction to one of our products. I was able to resolve her concern by listening to her, apologizing, issuing a refund, and offering a replacement product. I am no stranger to dispute resolution, problem-solving, and creative customer service, and I believe my approach would be in-line with the kind of environment Zara espouses."

1st Answer Example
"First, your approach to logistics is very efficient and impressive - you refresh your physical and online store collections twice a week and can deliver orders to stores anywhere in the world within 48 hours, and often sooner. It certainly seems like a well-oiled machine. Your 10 logistics centers are close to the head offices of your eight brands, and most production is also carried out in proximity, cutting travel distances, and reducing energy consumption and emissions."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"I really respect the fact that the Zara and Inditex approach to logistics is not only incredibly efficient, but it also reflects your commitment to sustainability. Your logistics centers are built and managed to the highest international sustainability standards, and I've recently learned that you have been upgrading all your existing logistics platforms, introducing eco-efficient lighting, improving insulation, installing sophisticated climate-control equipment, supplying bicycles and electric vehicles for internal transport, and using renewable energy sources.

Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"Although I do not have formal training and education in advertising and marketing, I love to research new marketing techniques. I'm a strong writer, so I feel that I could put that skill to use in helping the organization communicate effectively with both internal and external audiences. On the consumer front, I also have a strong understanding of several social media algorithms, including how to have your posts seen by the right audience. I'd look forward to using that skill for the good of the organization, along with learning more about more traditional marketing, advertising and communications tactics."

25. At Zara, we always think of the consumer first. What are the top 3 ways that we can ensure consumer satisfaction?
How to Answer
When it comes to consumer goods, the satisfaction of the consumer is everything! These days with reviews online and the power of social media, how will you ensure that consumer satisfaction is a priority when working at Zara?
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
1st Answer Example
"Consumer satisfaction first comes from offering value. The product must meet the needs of the consumer n a way that the customer feels is worth or even exceeds the price he/she paid. Second, consumer satisfaction stems from outstanding customer service - when a consumer has a question, can he or she quickly get a response that's helpful? And third would be anticipating consumer needs and being first to meet them in the marketplace - constantly testing products and learning as much as we can about our consumers' habits can help make sure we know what they need, sometimes even before they do."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"There are many ways to ensure consumer satisfaction; however, I feel that the top three ways are through top-notch customer service, investment in research and development, and consistently providing a product that solves a specific need. Ultimately, our products need to make a difference in the lives of our consumers, our end users need to trust us when they have a question or need help regarding a product, and they need to be continually surprised with new products that continue to make their lives better."

27. In your opinion, which designer has been the biggest fashion trailblazer in the past decade?
How to Answer
The interviewer would like to know that you have a true interest in fashion and the ability to have an intellectual opinion on the happenings in the fashion world. Give your personal opinion on your favourite fashion trailblazer and back up your reasoning.
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018

"I feel that the biggest fashion trailblazer in the past decade is Vera Wang. She is everywhere and her style speaks to people of all walk and budgets. I love that she can design clothes, wedding dresses, couture, and even home goods - proving that fashion isn't limited and is truly an art."
Written by Michelle Clark on November 25th, 2018
2nd Answer Example
"The fascinating thing about the fashion industry is that there is no real one trailblazer anymore. Designers can make a huge impact when they are barely known, and sometimes the designers who are household names, have an 'off' year. At this moment in time, I feel that Tom Ford is the best known trailblazer because his style has remained distinct and consistent throughout the years."
