I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bath & Body Works in Jan 2009
Interview
I had to choose my favorite BBW product, then "sell" it to the interviewer (i.e., tell her why it's wonderful and she can't live without it). Then I was given an apron and placed on the floor for them to see how I would interact with customers. ("Hi! Welcome to Bath and Body Works! Can I help you find anything today?") I was supervised while on the floor, so I didn't feel stressed about not knowing minute details.
