I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Zara (Ottawa, ON) in Sept 2013
Interview
i applied online by emailing my resume. I got a call the next day to come in for an interview.
The interview took about 10 minutes. I was asked about my availability, my past experience and current trends. They called me 2 days later to come in for a second interview. When i got there, i was introduced to some of the staff, the manager explained the details of the job and hired me.

Question 1

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.
