I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at J. Crew (San Antonio, TX) in Apr 2012
Interview
I received a call from the store manager to arrange the interview less than 5 days after submitting my application. The interview was relatively easy and there was only one. There isn't much to worry about when preparing for the interview, the questions are not out of this world, and (in my experience) it was mostly about getting to know me better, elaborating on some application questions that involved past experiences with customer service jobs (if any).

Interview
Lovely interview with the then assistant manager. Just connect showing your bubbly personality and talk maturely about your former job experience.
It ran for about 30-35 mins yet felt as if time flew by due to great conversation.
Great retail job. Requires alot of connecting with customers, even styling them in the fit rooms. But also remember EVERYONES EXPERIENCE is different
Easy, Basic Questions with the store manager. Just ask about previous experience and your availability. Why you want to work there. Met with the store manager and asked questions outside of the store.
the interview was entirely behavioral and very casual/conversational. mostly just how you would handle customer interactions and selling the credit card. i would highly recommend working there and interviewing. very similar to other retail interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
how comfortable are you with selling a credit card at checkout and how would you go about it?
