Interviewed Nov 2011 in Toronto, ON (Canada) (took a day)
I handed in my resume in store to the manager and she set up an interview the next day with a different manager. I was very nervous and he could tell, but he tried to put me at ease. The questions were common and easy and I got the job!

I submitted my resume online and then attended an open job fair. It was well organized in a seperate interviewing area. The interviewer was friendly and the interview was quick (maybe 15 minutes). I got a call back that night.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Annapolis, MD (took a day)
It's a one on one interview with one of the managers. They'll take you into this small room in the break, that actually serves as a locker room/break room and ask you a few questions about yourself, your strengths, weaknesses. They'll let you know upfront that you'll probably be there until midnight or later closing on weekends when asking about your availability. And they'll also ask you a few questions about fashion.

Interviewed May 2012 (took a day)
My friend referred me to her boss, and a few days later I received a phone call asking for an interview. I arrived for the interview expecting a 1 on 1 interview, but turns out, there were 8 other people there. The manager was late and left us all waiting in the middle of the store for her. Once she arrived, she just interviewed us all at once in the middle of the sales floor with customers around. She barely talked to us individually, but the whole interview took awhile since we had to wait for everyone to answer all of the questions. It didn't run smoothly at all. The manager instantly singled out favorites, and it was obvious from the start.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in El Paso, TX (took 2 days)
The first day I filled out an application and turned it into the manager and was interviewed on the spot. She asked me "what does customer service mean to you?" , " Tell me about a time you had to deal with an upset customer and how you dealt with it?" . That went well and she told told me that she would give me a call for a group interview. About 3-4 days later she called and told me i had another interview and in this one she asked about "what trends are in right now" and i was told to sell a product and situation questions were asked. That interview was really chill and calm since i was with only one other candidate.I really suggest on reading about trends and knowing whats in specifically.
