I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Ralph Lauren (Orlando, FL) in Sep 2015
Interview
Had 5 interviews before I was offered the job. Took about 2 months. Come dressed RL dress code: white woven, navy blazer, dark wash denim, brown leather shoes and brown belt.
It seemed to me that the hiring manager came to the interview without reading my resume beforehand and the role he/she described was significantly different from the job posting.
Later, I found out that the role was filled by an internal colleague, which made me believe that the whole hiring/interview process was just a matter of formality.
I think every candidate's time and effort should be respected.
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ralph Lauren in May 2020
Interview
4 Rounds of interviews which were all very casual and direct. First I spoke with the Area Manager via phone. Few days later I spoke with a General Manager of a different location. A few days after that I met with the Area Manager face to face briefly. Lastly I met with the Regional Director via FaceTime. All 3 interviewees were genuine, insightful, high energy, and positive. All around the process took about 4 weeks, mainly due to HQ effects from the pandemic.
All around a great and unique experience.
