I was interviewed one on one...basically told that you are required to buy clothing each season....it sounded like I'd be spending a good portion of my paycheck...

Interviewed Aug 2009 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
Recruitment for any store position with Abercrombie & Fitch or Hollister is done through recruitment. Requirements for landing the job are brand positive appearance (one needs to be physically attractive) and a college degree from a 4-year school (bachelor's degree).
Interview was conducted in a very traditional 1:1 manner where the interviewer started out by describing the company's philosophy, policies, practices, and it's position in the general retail industry. Business related facts were accurate but descriptions of the company, including salary figures, opportunities for promotion, and training/skill development after hire were GREATLY exaggerated.
The work culture is not what it is made out to be. The first time it even comes close to worth your time being employed by this company is when you reach the store manager position (arguably even the next level, district manager). As an assistant manager one is exploited, under-paid, and unappreciated. This implicit corporate atmosphere is perpetuated by advancement-from-within-only practices.

Negotiation Details
There is no room for negotiations. Company turn-over is high and everyone is considered VERY expendable.

Interviewed Jan 2008 (took 2 weeks)
Went and applied in-store. Got a call a few days later to come to a group interview. Arrived on time on the day of the interview and waited over an hour to find there was no manager on site to conduct a interview. Ended up having to drive to a completely opposite venue and wait another hour before finally getting an interview,
