I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Hollister Co. (Milpitas, CA) in Sep 2010
Interview
I walked into the store and the application was processed on a computer that was provided in-store for the public. I got to choose my interview date. The interview consisted of myself, the store manager, and about four other girls. Everyone was dressed casually in jeans and button-up shirts including the manager. She asked basic questions that she read directly off of the paper and wrote down our answers word for word, which to me seemed like she wasn't entirely invested in what we had to say. Got a call the next day saying I got the job.
I also quit temporarily and re-applied a few months later. I had to reinterview and the second time was very similar, even with the same manager, except this time it consisted of only myself, the manager, and one other boy.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Our tag line for the company is "Hi, how are you?" Give me an example of how you would say this to a customer.
Very simple easy interview process! Found questions online and it pretty much matched that! Manager was very kind and supportive. Had a verbal interview on site and started work soon after!

Question 1
Hypotheticals about customer situations and how you would approach it.
The interview was a group interview. I was then sent an email later that day including the job offer. After that, I got a phone call to set up an orientation date.
It's a group interview with about 5-6 people and you go one by one answering questions. You get amrked 1-5 based on your answer. the answers are easy questions nothing too hard
