H&M Fashion USA, Inc. - Maki Assessment Tool:
We use an online assessment tool called Maki for skills-based selection of applicants for sales advisor positions within some of our stores. Maki is not an automated decision-making tool. Rather, it is a tool that uses an AI-created avatar to present to you a set of multiple-choice questions. These questions are prepared by the H&M hiring team to assess candidates' ability to perform the duties of the position for which they are applying. The assessment calculates your total score based on predefined point values provided by our H&M team. The hiring team will review your whole application, including your assessment score, to decide whether to advance each candidate to the next stage. Doing the assessment is optional. If you choose to complete the assessment, your score will be one factor that the hiring team considers.
If you have any difficulties or concerns with the online assessment method, you can request an alternative method of assessment by contacting recruitment_support@hm.com. Choosing an alternative method will not affect your chances of being considered for the position, nor does any assessment method provide an advantage or disadvantage in the selection process. You will have the opportunity to provide optional feedback immediately after the assessment and you may always ask questions.
When you take the assessment, we collect your responses and use this information to evaluate your suitability for the role to which you have applied. The answers are saved in your applicant profile. We do not sell the information captured in the questionnaire and do not use any personal information to train any AI models. Our applicant tracking system provider has access to this information but is contractually prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
During this process, we may collect information from you through cookies, with your consent. This may include details such as your electronic network activity information (IP address, timestamps, and device identifiers). This information is accessible to our hiring team but is otherwise kept confidential. For more information, please refer to our Cookie Notice.
We retain this information for 3 years in your applicant file and use it as set forth in our Applicant Privacy Notice. For more information on how your personal data is processed by us, please refer to our Applicant Privacy Notice.
