I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Athleta (Saint Paul, MN) in Jun 2014
Interview
Pretty casual 3 person group and 1 Athleta employee interview process that lasted about 40 minutes. Asked pretty normal interview questions, told us about that brand and it's affiliation with Gap. Overall a good experience. Felt like I just had to be myself and was at ease for the entire interview process. Felt more like a conversation with 3 girls vs an interview.
