The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Body Shop (Ridgeland, MS) in Dec 2011
Interview
I arrived to the interview 10 minutes early. Store Manager seemed frazzled and before she barely even greeted me, she stated that she had just fired someone, which I thought was very unprofessional considering I was a potential employee. The store manager took me around the corner of the store to conduct interview on a bench. She explained the company's view, and talked her past in retail. She said that they only give part-time employment for 30 hours a week. Asked me what I could bring to the company. I had to do a product demo for the manager. She said I did good. She said she would call me within 48 hours, It's 3 weeks later, and I haven't received a call.

Why do you want to work here
Easy interview. Felt more like a conversation than being grilled on my resume. The manager asked me about my interests in the industry and my thoughts on skincare. I was asked behavioral questions as well.
I applied online. I interviewed at The Body Shop (Reading, England)
Interview
Friendly, chatty, bubbly. Many questions about customer service, products, sales, teamwork, information about the company, previous jobs, and many things like that. The next day I think I received an email from them with a job offer.
