I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (Minneapolis, MN) in May 2013
Interview
They scheduled an interview when I turned in my application. It was a group interview, there were 4 other people in the group other than myself. They asked behavioral questions mainly and a few questions about the brand itself.
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.
