H&M made a first screening of applicants and picked some interesting ones that was forwarded to a recruitment firm. They conducted a telephone interview with a strong focus on why I applied for the specific positon and why it would be interesting to work at H&M. After that they organized an assessment day on their Headquarters with interviews and "live case solving".

Multiple stages of interview, long process. It starts with an initial screening by HR. Then up to 4 rounds with hiring manager, then technical interview and third one is cross functional. There is sometimes a fourth and final one with HR. The interviews may also involve presentations, case studies and analytical tests.
