I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at J. Crew (Palo Alto, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Overall good experience. Pretty routine interview with nothing out of the ordinary. Important to express your customer service skills. The manager did not necessarily really care about my answers but it was clear it was routine to ask them
I filled out an application, a day later I received a call from the hiring manager. We scheduled an in person interview, it was super chill. They offered me the position right away, I told them that I will give 24 hrs to respond. I chose not to take the position due to personal matters.
I walked in the store and asked for an interview and a few days alter I met with the store director one-on-one after getting a phone call. Then I was asked questions about my availability and I was hired. They seemed to think I was a good fit, I had dressed up well and J.Crew clothing, so I was hired quickly.

Question 1
How many hours can you work?
Why do you think you would be a good fit?
How much retail experience do you have?
I had applied for a seasonal sales associate position. I received a call to schedule an interview and was sent a zoom link through email. I had been asked some questions. I also asked questions about the duration of this position, about wage, dress code, and specification on what the job would entail.
