Will you enjoy being part of H&M Group and Production? We surely hope so, but only if you’re comfortable in an environment with high levels of ambiguity and constant change. It is a place where your opinions matter right from day one, so you better have them and not be afraid to speak up; a place where “questioning what you’re told” is more often than “doing what you’re told”; a place where you can make mistakes, learn from those mistakes and develop through them.
