First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Tumi.
Store Manager
I was initially contacted by the DM for an interview that lasted a bit over an hour. They gave me a lot of info about the company and the position and expectations. They asked specific questions about my work history and background. It's a thorough process to ensure I meet the Company's selling standards and fit into the luxury culture. Brand integrity and client relations are essential. You must pass an assessment, a background check, have verifiable references and go through 2-4 interviews depending on the position.
- How do you present yourself as a polished professional with a strong selling background and a proven track record of driving sales?
Assistant Store Manager
Got a call from the Store Manager asking about my management experience, which made me feel like they hadn't even read my resume. She then set up an interview. The first interview was at the store with the Store Manager, who had a book of questions and seemed unprepared. The next interview was with the Area Manager via Facetime. She asked about people I know and mostly talked about herself, making it an unpleasant experience.
- Do you know Mrs...., who is my best friend...
Store Manager
They are looking for sales leaders who are motivated and passionate. They want someone who can multitask and push the team to maximize sales. They really care about how you'd get the team to be better at sales. The interview wasn't in a private office, but there weren't many distractions. They are friendly but get straight to the point. Be ready.
- What are your thoughts on providing feedback or coaching to your manager?
- Can you describe a situation where you had to manage your own time effectively?
- How have you gone about motivating or inspiring the people you've managed?
