I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at francesca's (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2015
Interview
Applied online, got a call within a few days. The manager was very nice but the store was a mess. After the interview she told me I was a great candidate - but that she had already hired someone. I thought it was unprofessional to not be upfront about that, as I took the time out of work to attend the interview. I am writing this 4 months later, as I've actually just gotten a voicemail from her asking to talk.

Question 1
Give an example of a time in your life when you've been a leader.
Pretty fast, it started with a phone call and then in person interview. After the interview in-person, you are onboarded fast and watch some training videos. After that, you are on the floor and also trained on the register.

Question 1
How much or if I had any experience working retail
One on one interview, asked general questions for retail. I did notice that they are interested in availability more than anything. Had a portion in the end with fake scenarios.
It was an easy process and straightforward. The questions are about what the job entails to see if you would be a good fit. The interview was with the store manager.
