http://louisvuitton.com/hr/en/recruit/index.htmI believe they require two years prior experience in high end retail, so your best bet might be to try and get a job at a department store with a LV boutique - that way you will be getting experience and you'll be working with the people who may decide to hire you in the future 
LOL! Would love to work for them too, but I'd hate to give up being able to buy pieces when they first come out, especially if they are limited editions. My SA told me that they can't buy LE pieces when they first come out...
what if you would just go to a different store to buy them?
then they wouldn't know that you work for lv.Like two identities

they wouldn't get their discount then.. but if they really want the piece, price doesn't matter.
I'd like to work for LV, trouble is we have very few high-end retailers where I am... I'd get my family to buy the LE pieces for me if I wanted them I think if you're good at what you do the potential to travel and move up is possible... working for LVMH in general would be extremely interesting

Sometimes I think all the frustration of retail and the possibility of becoming cranky would be worth it for the discounts and knowing the low down on all the lines and upcoming releases!! The problem is there are not enough hours in the day for me to work there and my current job!
Anyone know what kind of discount they receive?

I don't know if it based on each store. I had a friend who worked at LV and she was still in college and I don't think she worked in retail before hand. She was really fun and bubbly and cute, so not sure if that's the reason she was hired. Another one of the girls who I became friends with worked there for about 2 years and she was young, about 22 or 23. A friend in college worked there and he was still in school while working there and I'm not sure about his previous experience, but I don't think he had luxury retail in his background. I honestly think it depends on the the store's manager or who is doing the hiring, and if they like you or not.
i'm currently applying to louis vuitton for a part time sale associate position and i just wondered does anyone know what their hourly pay rate is?
