I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at American Eagle Outfitters (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2011
Interview
I first entered the store asking if the were hiring, the hiring manager handed me an application. The next day I returned it to the store manager, she was really sweet and said they'd deffinetly call me for any interview. The next day a different manager called me and scheduled an interview a week from then. I went in and it was me with 9 other people, we were told to go over their credit card benefits. A few minutes later the first manager sat us all around their couches, she introduced herself and was again very nice! we all had to go one after the other and answer a diffeent question, then back around to answer someone elses question or talk about ourselves. At the end she pulled us away one by one to talk about apps, when it was my turn she told me to sell her the credit card right on the spot, and because i sold it to her(have fun with it) i was told to make my way silently to another area of the store where i was to have a 1:1 interview with the hiring manager. He asked basic questions about my app and schedule, asked me another question and then asked me if i took a personality test. he then had me take one and when i was done he told me theyd look over my stuff and give me a call. the following day they called my reference and then called me right after offering the job.
