Questions you can expect in the interview

Drawn from this posting. None of them repeat on another job.

1.The role covers both brand.com and key luxury retailer.com partners. How do you decide where a product launch lands first when those channels compete?
2.This is a prestigious luxury fragrance and beauty house. What does luxury demand from a storefront that an ordinary premium brand does not?
3.You would lead product launches, seasonal campaigns, gifting and promotional activity. Gifting is a hard trading period in beauty. How do you plan for it?
4.You would own day-to-day trading and operational performance for the UK. What do you look at every morning, and what would make you change the plan that day?
5.Luxury brands are usually cautious with discounting. How do you hit a trading number in a business that will not let you promote your way there?
