I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2012
Interview
Group style, questioning each person. The interview took place in the small back room with one of the managers and two other girls. One of the girls with me got hired, the other did not. The girl who didn't get hired worked for the company before and I could tell that she was not liked by the manager.
Hiring managers prioritize your personality, availability, and customer service mindset, looking for candidates who are friendly, adaptable, reliable, and comfortable engaging with customers, rather than focusing heavily on prior experience or technical skills.
Very easy, first a phone call then meeting in person. Took a while to be seen in person even after the scheduled meeting time, they had me just kind of stand in a corner for a while waiting for someone to become available.
