I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Abercrombie & Fitch (Orlando, FL) in May 2010
Interview
A&F conducts interviews in groups of less than 10 people. The hiring manager will ask questions based on past work experience, school involvement (i.e. clubs, organizations, sports), leadership positions you've held, work ethic, etc. I was one of two people who was hired.

Interview
I applied online and then I received a call back asking to come in for a group interview. The group interviews were held outside the store. There were about 6 of us in one group. We went around the circle answering questions.
