I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at J. Crew (Roseville, MN) in Nov 2009
Interview
I first picked up a paper application from the store and filled it out and returned it to one of the managers. After a couple of days I followed up by calling the store to see if they received my application and that they looked at it and if they were still looking to hire for seasonal employees. I set up an interview that same phone call. My interview was about 20 minutes with a manager one on one at the store. I got a call the next day saying that they would like to hire me and I accepted.

Interview
Lovely interview with the then assistant manager. Just connect showing your bubbly personality and talk maturely about your former job experience.
It ran for about 30-35 mins yet felt as if time flew by due to great conversation.
Great retail job. Requires alot of connecting with customers, even styling them in the fit rooms. But also remember EVERYONES EXPERIENCE is different
Easy, Basic Questions with the store manager. Just ask about previous experience and your availability. Why you want to work there. Met with the store manager and asked questions outside of the store.
the interview was entirely behavioral and very casual/conversational. mostly just how you would handle customer interactions and selling the credit card. i would highly recommend working there and interviewing. very similar to other retail interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
how comfortable are you with selling a credit card at checkout and how would you go about it?
