Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
I was initially interviewed by the Store Manager of one location, then by the District Manager and then a Store Manager for another location. In my last interview salary was discussed and I was told I would be contacted the following Monday. (The 3rd interview occured on a Thursday.) I followed up one week later after having heard nothing. It has now been a week and a half and and no one from the company has called. I am disappointed by their lack of professionalism and would have expected at least that my call have been returned, even if they chose another individual for the position or if the salary I asked for was to high.

Interviewed Jul 2009 in Tulsa, OK (took a day)
It was quick and relatively pain-free. I didn't enjoy the group interview, but I don't know if that method is still used. It was too much of a competition trying to be heard in a group, and there were things I could have asked but didn't feel comfortable asking in a group.

Turned in the applicaton on a Friday and got a call the following day for an interview on Monday. Interviewed with the assistant manager and then with the store manager on Tuesday. She asked if I could tell her 10 benefits of the NY&C credit card and asked me to explain how I would try to sell one to a customer. Great experience!

Negotiation Details
Didn't have any experience, yet they offered to train you. If you like challenge, need job experience, or more like customer service experience, and don't mind being tampered with time/pay then apply for this job. Otherwise, I do not recommend it.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Cerritos, CA (took a day)
I got a call a few weeks after I submitted my application. The interview was scheduled for the following week. On the day of the interview I got to the store about 15 minutes before the interview and saw a bunch of other girls standing around waiting for the interview to start. There was about 7 of us in the group. When it was time, the manager led us to the back room. In the middle of the room enough seats had been arranged for all the interviewees. The seats were all facing one direction and the manager sat in front of the group. She asked a few typical questions. Said that whoever was going on to the second round of interviews would get a call the next day. Other things learned from their associates, employees earn their hours and both the district and regional managers are housed in this store so if you are comfortable working under this kind of pressure this store is for you.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took a day)
I saw a sign outside the store that they were hiring so I walked in, asked for an application, and filled it out on the spot. The manager asked me to come in the following day for a group interview. The group interview was very very basic and straightforward. The manager read questions from a paper and we each had to answer. I was offered the job on the spot but later declined because the hourly rate was extremely low (even for retail!)
