I was approached by one of the assistant managers while shopping at the store and asked if I was interested in a manager in training position. I told them I was off to grad school and wouldn't be able to commit to them. The AM had me fill out an application anyway. After a few weeks of them trying to get me to come for an interview I told them that I was not interested and would be focusing on school before looking for a more challenging position than they could offer. A year later they are still calling me. It makes me wonder about the the satisfaction of their employees if they are still calling me a year after I told them "thanks, but no thanks."

Question 1
What distinguishes the Abercrombie and Fitch/ Hollister brand from other retailers? And what about that makes you want to work here?
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Hollister Co.
Interview
You apply online and pick an interview date. Hollister does group interviews so it'll typically be you and 3 or 4 other people going around a circle being asked the same questions by the manager. The questions were, 1: Describe hollisters style 2: What could you contribute to our company? 3: What hours are you available? 4: What does diversity mean to you?
