The initial online application was fairly standard: a short questionnaire, resume, and brief cover letter. Those selected for an interview were contacted by phone. The interview was done in a group setting, with two interviewers and around seven or eight being interviewed. Dress for the interview was business casual (I didn't even feel under dressed in a golf polo shirt), and the interviewers were fairly laid back. They want to get a feel for your personality more than your skills, because almost all the work requires on-the-job training. After the interview, contact was again made by phone to notify applicants of the decision and make arrangements for hiring, if necessary.

Interview
Informal with two of the managers of the outlet store. Talked a lot about my interest in sport and why I like the brand. Really want their employees to have a passion for sport. Spent a good amount of time responding to certain situations that I could come into and how I would respond to the customers.

Interview
It was a group interview. We went around in a circle talking a little bit about ourselves. I actually came to the interview late but they still gave me a chance at getting the job, and I did. They asked the group questions and we went around in a circle answering them.
