I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zara (London, England) in Feb 2016
Interview
Mini-standing interview when applied for the role in person. Whereby I was asked why I wanted to work for Zara and join the Inditex team. Upon the completion of that 2 minute interview, my application was put to one side from the other applications.
Then I was invited in for a group interview. There were around 15 applicants in the room sat around in a circle. We were asked to describe ourselves as part of an 'icebreaker', and then put into groups. In which we had to fashion a garment of our own (by drawing on a paper) and then present it to the rest of the room.

like, job posting mentioned that hiring the full time sales, they actually hire the 2 months contract sales and part time
Visited the store and inquired about hiring opportunities. I was connected with the hiring manager and completed a straightforward in-person interview. The process was professional, welcoming, and provided insight into the role.
