Assistant Manager at La Senza
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Winnipeg, MB (Canada) Jun 2009 – Reviewed Nov 27, 2012
Interview Details – Dropping off a resume at a store location is the best way to get an interview. Applying on La Senza's website or through another online job site means that your resume may not be seen at store level for a few weeks. Always ask to speak to the manager. If she is not available make sure to ask when she will be in. Best time to come in is Monday morning. Make sure you know why you want to work there. She will ask you! Open availability is key. This means weekends as well! If your initial conversation goes well she will set up an interview. If you are applying for a management position a 2nd or 3rd interview may follow.

Sales Associate at La Senza
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Dartmouth, NS (Canada) Oct 2011 – Reviewed Jun 24, 2012
Interview Details – I went to the mall with a handfull of resumes and started handing them out. I wasn't going to go into la senza because I did not want to work with only girls. However, my boyfriend convinced me to go in and I did and talked to the manager who happened to be there. I handed her my resume and she informed me that they were holding interviews every tuesday and thursday, since the holiday season was approaching. I went in on Tuesday and it was a very laid back interview, but since it was a group interview I made sure I stood out. I got a job offer the next morning.

Assistant Manager at La Senza
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Mar 2011 – Reviewed Mar 22, 2011
Interview Details – I applied in-person and got an interview the next day. It went well and after the interview she had me do another interview (on the same day) with a different manager from a different location. Normally, the next interview is supposed to be with the district manager next but, she was on holiday. I was offered the job the following day, pending references of course. The type of questions they asked were behavioural type.
