I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret in Apr 2013
Interview
When I initially dropped off my paper application in person, I was immediately asked when I would be available to schedule an interview with them. I got a date, time, and name of the person interviewing me and went home. During the interview, I noticed I was not going to be alone, and the interviews were done by a group. There were 3 of use that had applied for a job as a Sales Associate. I came in all black, since that is the dress code for Victoria's Secret, and processed to answer the questions honestly. There were questions like "If a customer was buying a bra, what else could you sell to her?" And "What are some things you would say to someone unsure to check their fitting/size?"
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
My most unexpected question was if I felt confident measuring people in the fitting rooms.
The interview process was friendly and professional. They are looking for bubbly energetic personalities to bring to their team. My advice would be to look presentable and bring your fun self to the interview. Retail is all about making someone feel seen and heard and making a friend
I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (Orland Park, IL)
Interview
It was super easy and if you haven't done retail before they still give you a chance. They ask each person different questions, one was why do you want to work here
Applied online and got a phone call to set up an interview. It was a group interview. I was asked some behavioral questions and was asked for specific examples from my previous jobs.
