I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Vans (Torrance, CA) in Jun 2011
Interview
The interview process is fairly simple and straight forward.They do not offer paper applications, everything is done via the vans website. From the website you are able to choose which job(s) to apply for and which location(s) you are interested in. Sometimes it takes a few days to receive a call back from them about your application but doesn't take more thank a week. They had me interview with a few other candidates which is not very overwhelming only because it is only a total of 3 people and the interviewer.
Group interview with atleast 10 others. Maybe about 30 minutes. Best to tell stories of customer experience for answers to better highlight self. It was about 10 questions long with two store managers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell a time you were able to change a customer's mind?

not too bad and pretty straight forward. simple questions were asked to detirmine if they thought you would fit. lastedd about 20 minutes and was in a group setting with 5-10 people.
