I applied online. I interviewed at Madewell in Oct 2013
Interview
Typical interview questions. I didn't have any experience going into the job. They asked me why I want to work at Madewell, what I knew about Madewell, what skills and qualifications I offered. I mostly answered about my experiences with customer service, but another important aspect they look for in future employees is how long you are expected to stay at Madewell. A lot of associates tend to be promoted into managers and managers continue into corporate. Another aspect to focus on is the denim of Madewell and the type of style that Madewell evokes. The manager asked me what three words I would use to describe my style.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most difficult question was when the manager set up a scenario for me.
Contacted via phone to organise time in person. I was taken into the office and had a series of questions asked. A practicle situation was roleplayed. Easy process, manager was good.
I applied on LinkedIn and received a phone call to set up an interview. I met with a manager in person and answered a few questions about my background, customer service experience, and personal style.

Question 1
How would you sell this product? How would you describe your personal style?
it was very simple, just an initial phone screening then a zoom interview, very simple one-on-one conversation between me and the manager of the store i applied to, lasted about 30 min
