So, I went for this Assistant Buyer job at Neiman Marcus. It was pretty set up but also interesting. First, there was this phone call with HR, they wanted to know about my past, if I'd done retail or merchandising stuff, and if I actually wanted to work there. Then, I had a video chat with the person who would be my manager, and that was more about my number skills, how I deal with vendors when we're talking prices, and if I know what's hot in fancy clothes.
