Forever 21 Visual Merchandiser interview questions

Went to store to apply. Met the visual manager on the spot she then called me again to interview with her the next day. Interview was basic questions catered to my resume, the I had to merchandise a fixture. She called me the next morning to schedule me an appointment to meet the field visual merchandiser. Met the field visual merchandiser the next week she liked me gave me her card then told me she had to speak with the DM. then I was called to meet with the Store manager and DM at the same time questions were tailored to my resume once again.. At the end of the interview they had me sign a background check form. They said it would take about a week, and afterwards they would proceed with hiring... which would mean they should have it back this Friday!! So I am still waiting

I came into the Forever 21 on Michigan Ave and introduced myself to the other visual merchandisers who were working on a display. I let them know I was here to interview and one of them went to grab their manager. They kind of seemed a bit cliquish, but maybe that was normal for someone approaching that type of situation. They had me put together three separate looks and once I was done they had me describe the looks and asked me questions about who would wear the looks, where they would wear it to, how would their hair and makeup be. Then they left me to go look at the various areas of the store so I could see how it was merchandised. Someone returned, I don't think it was the manager, but another person, and she asked me what I noticed throughout the store and how I would merchandise a specific area differently. Afterwards we sat and discussed the position and working for the company. It was one of the longest processes I had ever been through. I don't think I was a good fit for the company and I was not offered the position and probably would never apply there again. I have no issues with the company, but I think people who are really giddy and enthused about trends would do well in this type of environment...and thats just not me.
