Interviewed Sep 2011 in Shawnee, OK (took a day)
After I submitted my online application, it only took about 2 weeks for me to hear back from Maurices. We scheduled the interview. I sat down for my interview and started to question immediately whether or not I really wanted to work there. The farther into the interview I got, the less I was sure because of the way the employees were dressed. When the assistant manager (who was giving the interview) said that there was a 6 accessory minimum above the waist, I knew then that this was a superficial company that didn't really care how comfortable their employees were while at work. Some advice that I would offer to other candidates is make sure you are comfortable wearing 6 accessories every single day when you go into work, it is part of their dress code, and from the looks of it, the only rule they enforce.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Waxahachie, TX (took 4 days)
I filled out an online application and then was emailed to complete another assessment. After that I was called in for an interview. When I got to the interview I first had to do a personality assessment and then had a one on one interview with a manager. She asked me questions like "Tell me about a time when you went above and beyond for a customer," "Tell me how you have handled criticism from your boss in the past," etc. I probably would've been offered the job if I could have started immediately.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Minneapolis, MN (took 3 weeks)
The interview went very well. It is an excellent way to balm the nerves of the nervous people. Group interviews the first time around were very easy. Questions wer very generic, nothing about "what do you know about us". All consisting of questions that pertained to your personality and how you handle things.
I was called back for a second interview 3 weeks later and I am waiting to hear what happens. They are making the decision in a few days.
This interview Is very easy for the people who get nervous and choke up. The people are very friendly and personalbe and they make you feel at ease.

Interviewed May 2011 in Istanbul (Turkey) (took 5 days)
It was a quite smooth process. The interviewer first gave me an overview of the company and then explained responsibilities. Next, we had a casual conversation about my skills and past experiences. Overall I had a great experience and enjoyed the process.

Interviewed Feb 2012 (took a day)
I went in and the manager interviewed me. She was incredibly personable, and the interview seemed to go well. The store was just opening and I think there must have been a lot of competition for the job. It would have been my first job, so I think my lack of experience may have hurt me. One question asked was, "name three current fashion trends."

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Kenosha, WI (took 3 weeks)
A waste of my time. It could be a great place to work, but I unfortunately had a bad experience with the manager. I received a call 3 weeks later, and did not accept.
Typical questions such as:
Tell me about yourself.
Why Maurices?
How would you "coach" somebody?
At the mention of pay the district manager "pretended" not to know.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Nampa, ID (took 2 weeks)
Initially I was called to ask if i was still interested in the position, and asked to come in some time that day for an assesment-- a personality test really. There was very little personal interraction, or information other than that if they were still interested afterwards they would contact me.
Approx a week later I got another call out of the blue asking for a time to schedule the interview that day, and went in for that. This time the manager met me in person, and we sat down and had a lengthy conversation asking about my interests, previous work experience, and some questions like, "Describe a goal you've set for yourself recently and what you did to achieve that goal." They also wanted to know about goals that I hadnt reached, and why, or how i dealt with it, as well as past experiences with customers. Honestly all you really can do is try to be yourself, be polite and formal, and hope you dont have too many questions leaving you scratching your head for answers.
After the interview I was told that there would be a second interview as well, and I'm waiting to hear back now, about 7 days from my last interview.
Overall, good experience so far, but keep in mind they try very hard to look for people who want to make a career with them instead of just needing a job.
