I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sunglass Hut (Sídney)
Interview
It was just a chat in a nearby cafe where they explained the company, their values and the role. They also asked a set of questions about my previous experience and how it would help me in this role.
Asked about experience, situational questions (was there ever a time where), if I'm interested in fashion, and register skills. Then the second in person part was role playing approaching a customer, giving advice, and testing a little knowledge about sunglasses like shapes and color theory.

Phone (asked about availability, location & if I wanted full time/part time) then in person. Asked simple scenario questions about how I handled conflict and describe how I would sell stuff.

It really depends on your manager as there’s no specific set guidelines. Generally easy questions and basic questions regarding sales. I’ve helped my manager come up with scenarios on top of some easy basic questions.
