I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at American Eagle Outfitters (Paramus, NJ) in Jul 2014
Interview
You go in store and ask for an application and return it to the manager after completing it. Afterwards if you get a call back you go to the group interview and are asked questions and then on the spot the manager will take you individually and speak with you on your availability and tell you whether you're hired or whether you need to come back.

Interview
On a Friday, I walked into the store and asked for an application. I returned it that Sunday and spoke to a manager for less than five minutes, and was offered the position on the phone that Tuesday. The process was very relaxed, informal, and quick. I had very flexible availability around the holidays and assume this was the reason why I was offered the position so quickly.

Interview
I went in and asked for an application. The manager asked me to fill it out ASAP and find her. I went to the food court filled it out and returned to the store 10 minutes later. I found the manager and she looked over my application and asked me two questions. After talking for about 5 minutes she hired me on the spot and I had orientation the next day!

Interview
I had submitted an application a few months back and was actually going to submit a new one when I got a call to shedule an interview. I was having a busy week and they were very flexible with scheduling. During the interview she had me make an outfit with a theme "thanksgiving dinner". I went around the store, assembled my outfit, and brought it up to her. She asked me to then describe why I picked the outfit, how it relates to my style etc. She said it was so cute she wishes she could put it on the mannequin! Afterwards I took a quick assessment on the computer and then we walked to a quiet place in the mall where she asked me the interview questions. She then asked if I wanted to join the team and I said yes! We set up an orientation date that I will be attending soon!
