Retail interviews operate at the intersection of customer behavior, supply chain operations, and financial performance. Whether you are interviewing at a mass retailer, a specialty chain, an e-commerce platform, or a luxury brand, interviewers expect you to understand how products move from supplier to shelf to customer — and how every decision along that chain affects margin.
The interview process typically involves merchandising cases, omnichannel strategy questions, unit economics analysis, and customer segmentation exercises. You need to demonstrate that you can decompose a retail P&L, diagnose same-store sales trends, optimize fulfillment economics, and design loyalty strategies that drive both traffic and profitability.

Why retail interviews need dedicated prep
Retail interviews test industry-specific thinking that generic business frameworks miss. You need to understand how same-store sales decompose into traffic and conversion, how fulfillment cost structures differ across channels, how inventory turns affect working capital, and how loyalty programs drive lifetime value. Standard consulting or finance prep does not cover these dynamics.
The AI coach pushes you to think like a retail operator. How do you close the profitability gap between digital and in-store fulfillment? How do you grow a premium brand without cannibalizing it through an off-price channel? How do you design a membership model that drives both retention and basket size? These are the questions that separate hired candidates from also-rans.
