I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Gap (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2016
Interview
Phone interview, after taking personality and numerical tests online, after submitting online application.
First, I applied online.
The next day I got an email inviting me to take online tests.
The personality test gives you three phrases (for example, I am competitive, I think people are trustworthy, I think about the future). You have to choose which phrase is MOST like you, and which phrase is LEAST like you (and you leave one phrase without an answer). There are 100 of these (actually, they label it as 50, but on each page, they give you two sets of threes [if that makes sense]).
The numerical test gives you graphs and numbers and asks you questions that you generally have to calculate. There are I think 18 questions in 17 minutes.
After taking those, the next day I got an email inviting me to schedule the phone interview.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
How did you find out about the Rotational Management Program?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Gap in Oct 2022
Interview
It was three rounds in four weeks. The first two were a week apart and the last round happened two weeks after the second round. The first round was a behavioral interview with a short exercise during it. The second round was project based, you had about 5 days to do it because it had to be submitted 2 days before your interview and they did not give you the prompt until exactly 7 days before your interview. The project was intense but easily doable. I took about 10-12 hours doing the project, then after I practiced presenting it. The last round was 2 interviews and then a group activity. I had to complete another project but this one was quicker. The two interviews were a mixed of behavioral questions and questions about both projects. The group activity was them watching how we interacted in a group when creating an idea. I did this entire process virtually. Every interviewer I met was very focused on the interview and getting their notes, but also they had some personality as well. I had a good experience but it was one of my challenging interview processes ever.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gap in Sep 2021
Interview
The interview process includes an 1-hour online assessment (with behavioral and logic/comprehension questions), call with a recruiter, case presentation with another recruiter, and final interview. The video screen with the recruiter includes questions about the recent product/fashion trends as well as behavioral questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Tell me about your background
2. Besides athleisure, tell me 2 other product trends you've seen and the brands that have exhibited those trends
3. Between merchandising and inventory, which are you more interested in and why
Rather an intense interview process with 3 different steps. The first step was informational, the second step was building a unique brand, and the third step was presenting the brand you designed. Didn't make it past the third round.
