I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Bath & Body Works (New York, NY) in May 2019
Interview
Lots of "what would you do in this situation" questions. But please, if you are nervous (I sure was) remember these are people just like you. Make it a conversation! Yes, it is an interview, but don't walk in there without a smile or jokes, catch on! They are just like you!
Tip: No need to go crazy when it comes down to what to wear to the interview. It's a retail store! Just wear some jeans (no ripped jeans, short,etc) with a shirt, maybe some flats. Look composed and clean. That'll do! Do your research on the company, and prepare questions beforehand (Yes, you can still do that and act natural on the interview)

Very structured and easygoing. The hiring manager was very polite and asked important questions. I didn't hear back until about two weeks later, and I accepted the position. Ended up working there for 4 years and had an awesome experience.
