      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Madewell (New York, NY) in May 2015

      Interview

      I applied in-store and got a call back within a week. Interviewed the following week and was offered the position a few days later. It was very casual and laid back.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Madewell (Troy, MI) in Apr 2016

      Interview

      It took quite awhile to find a time that worked for me since I was away at school. Another issue was that one of the managers unfortunately broke their nose. We did a phone interview first, then one in person. The staff members I spoke with were super nice and responded very quickly to any questions I had.

      Sales Support Interview

      8 Mar 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Portland, OR
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Madewell (Portland, OR) in Jan 2016

      Interview

      I applied for the Sales Associate ad and was emailed the next day that they wanted to meet with me! She said she wanted to meet in a coffee shop which I thought was a little strange and unprofessional, but I went with it. I didn't meet with the original girl I was corresponding with because she had a meeting. The girl I met with was nice and the interview went well I thought, although she didn't really ask me anything related to the job. They were hiring me for Sales Support but I told them I applied for Sales Associate which I was kind of upset about but I figured hey it's still a job. She asked me what hourly pay I was looking for which made me uncomfortable because I wasn't prepared for that. I told her 11-12/hr based on what I'd seen here on Glassdoor. She said that was on the higher end of what they pay but I didn't say I wasn't open to a lower pay. The interview went very quickly, about 10 minutes long. It was strange but she said they wanted to do a second interview so I was like okay cool! I met with the original girl I was emailing the second time I went in for an interview. It was at the same coffee shop. She didn't really ask me about my previous experience in retail which I had about 2.5 years of. I thought it was really strange that I wasn't being asked normal interview questions that I had prepared for. I felt like they couldn't get a sense of the kind of employee I would be even if they chose to hire me. She asked me the same question about the salary as the other girl did. I gave a little bit of a lower answer, 10-11/hr. She said it was a little high so I told her I was open to lower if necessary. It was the same kind of deal except I felt like we really hit it off and she was really nice. I felt like I'd gotten the job. The interview only lasted about 10 minutes again. She said I'd hear back from them in a few days.
