I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at J. Crew (Niagara Falls, NY) in May 2013
Interview
Filled out a paper application and received a call about a week after bringing it in. Interview was very relaxed, asked to tell them about myself and why I wanted to work in retail, why I wanted to work at J. Crew and why I think I can represent the brand, how I would handle a situation with a difficult customer, what I disliked from my last job, and what qualities in my last job applied to this job. Very good atmosphere, made it easy to work off of the energy.

Why do you think you can represent the J. Crew brand?
I applied in-person. I interviewed at J. Crew (Grand Prairie, TX)
Interview
Lovely interview with the then assistant manager. Just connect showing your bubbly personality and talk maturely about your former job experience.
It ran for about 30-35 mins yet felt as if time flew by due to great conversation.
Great retail job. Requires alot of connecting with customers, even styling them in the fit rooms. But also remember EVERYONES EXPERIENCE is different
Easy, Basic Questions with the store manager. Just ask about previous experience and your availability. Why you want to work there. Met with the store manager and asked questions outside of the store.
the interview was entirely behavioral and very casual/conversational. mostly just how you would handle customer interactions and selling the credit card. i would highly recommend working there and interviewing. very similar to other retail interviews.
