      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at American Apparel (Tokyo) in Aug 2017

      Interview

      The interview started with groups of 5 standing in front of the managers and PR explaining what we do, where we went to school, general information. We were then asked to explain what we like about the brand and why choose AA and explain in Japanese to test our language abilities. Nothing too complicated but just a test to see if we could accomplish work tasks in a multilingual environment. Everyone spoke one by one. Rather simple and positive experience overall.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1)Tell us about yourself? 2) What do you like or enjoy about AA? 3)Are you open to full time or part time work or both? 4) Tell us something about where you're from? 5) When would you be available to start?

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at American Apparel (London, England) in Jul 2021

      Interview

      the whole process felt very unorganised as I had to be interviewed at one side of the main head office. The process was fairly simple but you could understand that they are very image oriented.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at American Apparel (Orlando, FL) in May 2016

      Interview

      Standard interview questions. They wanted to see their associates with their look. So dress with something from their store. They took a photo of you during the process to see if other management approved.

      Question 1

      During my interview they asked, tell us what you know about the company and the founder.
