I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at francesca's
Interview
I applied about a month prior to getting my first interview, within the first interview you are asked basic questions about the position, why you applied, blah blah blah. After this interview I was then notified that if the company was interested in me they'd give me a call. After about a week I didn't hear anything so I decided to call them back. When I called them back the manager said that I was one of her top candidates and that she will call me back soon to schedule a second interview, this time with the dm. After about 2 weeks I heard nothing so I decided to call the manager back again and when I did the girl that I spoke to told me that the manager no longer worked there. After this I pretty much was fed up so I gave up. Then after a month, yes a month. I was called again, this time by a different manager from a different store asking me if I was interested in an interview. I told this manager that I had already been interviewed but I was never called back to follow up. She seemed really surprised and insisted I interview another time and so I did. This time I was interview by the manager of a different store and the assistant manager of the store that I would be working for. After this interview I was then scheduled to interview with the dm the following week which actually happened this time.

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.
