Interview
Submitted application online, got a phone call to interview at the store. Sat down in the food court of the mall and proceeded with interview. Manager was rather rude and snippy.

Interview
The interview process was quick and painless. The manager I worked under is no longer there, however. It was a standard interview. Assessed my skills and knowledge, and willingness to learn.

Question 1
I always find that the most difficult questions are those standard, awful questions, like, "please describe a time when you had to.....". Stuff about honesty and difficulty.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Body Shop in Mar 2013
Interview
The interview asked some behavioral based questions. Also inquired about previous work experience and skills and qualifications. The interview was pretty standard and basic and lasted about 30 to 40 minutes. Since I was out of town at the time, we did a phone interview instead of in person.

Question 1
There were no surprising or very difficult questions, but here are some of the questions asked: "describe a time when you made mistakes on the job and how you fixed it" "How did you handle a difficult situation with a customer?" Also questions about previous work experience. I think it was helpful to be as specific as possible.
