      Product Developer Interview

      Jul 19, 2010
      Anonymous employee
      Freeport, ME
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at L.L. Bean (Freeport, ME) in Mar 2008

      Interview

      Since I was already an employee, I was working from within for a promotion. My previous job was as a Merchandiser - basically the strategic and information conduit between PD and Creative - so I had a strong perspective on what was expected from the PD role, the brand, etc. The interviews were lengthy and a mix of informal conversations and more specific "interrogations", all with a focus on creativity, problem solving, people skills and conflict resolution. If you've done your homework on the product and the brand and honed your interview skills you'll be prepared for the basic questions - but I would suggest really taking time to look within yourself and have a clear understanding on what you want out of your time with LLB. They appreciate people with a vision and look for potential in their employees beyond the job for which they are applying. It goes a long way.

      Answer question

      Question 2

      What is your favorite LLB product and why? Be specific and very descriptive.
