I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Hollister Co. in May 2011
Interview
There was a group interview where they asked about why you wanted to work there and why diversity was important. Very structured interview. They are looking for people who can represent their brand. I was the only one hired in that group interview.

Interview
Two recruiters were looking to hire part-time Floor Models in my university, and I got invited to attend one of the interviews. Hollister holds two interviews per week with 5-6 people to 1 interviewer. It takes around 30 minutes. It's rather informal, the interviewer goes around the group asking 5-6 questions, starting with different people each time for fairness.
Some of the questions include: "What does the Hollister brand mean to you?", "What do you in your spare time?", and "Is diversity in a workplace important to you?"
They tell you to dress in the Hollister style for the interview, but in my opinion, it doesn't really matter. As long as you look fashionable, you'll probably get hired. For girls, they ask for minimal make-up.
