I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (Layton, UT) in Jun 2019
Interview
Applied and got a call about a week later for an interview. The interview went pretty well. The manager ended it saying she thought my answers and everything sounded really good, but she wasn’t actually the hiring manager. She said she would let the hiring manager know and they would get back to me “in a few hours.” I patiently waited with my phone in hand for hours. I didn’t want to miss it. No call. I waited until the next day about an hour before they closed and called to get some kind of status update. I was told someone else was interviewing for the position the following day and I would hear something that afternoon. I waited anxiously all day. No call. Then came the next day. No call. Then I checked my email to find the generic “thanks for your interest, we will be moving forward with other candidates.” I was crushed. I can’t help but think the reason I didn’t get the job was because I am a military spouse who admitted in the interview we have been stationed here already 3 years. I really wasn’t expecting so many questions to be about my husband’s occupation. I was caught off guard a little, but was honest. Maybe I shouldn’t have been. That is really so disheartening to never even be given the chance by companies just because of what my husband does. I am so sad. I had completely open availability and know I was qualified for the position. I just wish the manager didn’t lead me on and then lie to me twice about when they would get back to me. I really love this company and the products and felt like I would have really been a great employee.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is one of your strengths and one opportunity for growth?
It was a group interview with about 25 people in the room. If you had an answer to any questions you had to raise your hand to answer while managers watched. Then they had individual interviews if you did well in the group interviews.
Interview was a three step process, first phone call, group interview, and then one on one. Pretty easy. Very nice team. The main focus is how good of a personality you have.

Question 1
One of the questions was how I could measure a customer, find their correct size and build their basket.
Online application and one in person interview at the store. Overall very friendly. Worked there for the seasonal position and got placed to be there permanently after the holidays. No retail experience required just want availability.
