I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Bath & Body Works in Jun 2010
Interview
After turning in an application in person, I was called a couple weeks later to come in for an interview. I interviewed with the co-manger and two other applicants. We were asked to select our favorite product from the sales floor and stated why we liked it as an icebreaker. Questions asked were typical interview questions, - describe a situation when you were trying to sell something, how would you handle an unhappy customer, why do you want to work for this company, and so on. I received a phone call about 5 days later offering the position, which I accepted. The other two girls I interviewed with were also offered positions.
