I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Athleta in Jan 2013
Interview
You must apply online. I also brought in a resume on a weekday as soon as the mall opened before it got busy. They called for an interview and it was a group interview. I interviewed with four other candidates. I got called for a second interview with another manager and three of those four were also there. We became friends during the interview process and were all hired. They ask open ended questions and let you chat as they observe your interactions with each other and your personality through your responses.
