I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Gap Inc. (Tokio) in Feb 2011
Interview
The interview process was very professional. The HR managers were great at corresponding with me and not leaving too much radio silence between calls or emails. In the 1 on 1 interview the questions were not standard at all. They required a deep knowledge of the marketing space and the ability to offer forward thinking ideas.
It was easy and non-stressful. I had a phone screening with a supervisor, who then asked me to come in and meet with the general manager. Meeting with the general manager was great, because she was easy to talk to and she made the customer role-play portion fun. I was hired on the spot.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had to deal with an upset customer.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Gap Inc. (New York, NY) in Oct 2013
Interview
Started as a freelancer and after about 6 months went through the review process with HR. Everyone was very genuine and on the level. Salary negotiations weren't difficult at all and everyone was helpful. Information is laid out clearly, all questions get answered really fast. Background checks take a bit of time but don't know how much that can be helped.
