I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Coach (Boston, MA) in Sep 2011
Interview
Group interview - received an employee referral first. There were about 5-7 of us and we were all interviewed by the assistant managers/managers. It didn't last too long - just an hour or so. Pretty informal.

Question 1
Name a difficult situation you were in once, and what you did to solve the problem
It was pretty relaxed, two interviewers, mostly spoke about my CV and Customer Service. Why I want to join the company and why luxury retail? I am still waiting to hear back from them. Had my interview last last week.

Question 1
How would you influence a customer to make a purchase
Pretty straight forward and nothing too intense. Great energy from the team as long as you are competent yet competitive.
It was a 2 step process for me after the phone call and they brought me in immediately.
