I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Gap in Aug 2012
Interview
I applied online August 20th and received a call yesterday by a nice young lady to come in for an interview today. I came in and I met her very quickly actually. She was extremely sweet and laid back. She asked really simple questions. I was in there for about 15 minutes. Nothing was unexpected or hard. Things like, what is your definition of a sales associate? How would you break the ice with a costumer? How would you explain your personal style? Why GAP?
Group interview with other candidates with the store manager. Arrive at the store and wait for other candidates. Then interview happens in break room and it lasted roughly about 30-60minutes
It was a group interview of about 10-12 people. If I remember correctly they take you to the back, the stock room, and ask almost everyone the same question. The interview lasted about 30 minutes.
It was very easy, one in person interview with the general manager and then I was accepted! Mainly personality and behavioral questions were asked, and I think enthusiasm on my end helped the most.
