I applied online. I interviewed at Madewell (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Pretty simple, was asked to do a Zoom interview by the store manager after applying. I wasn't told it was a group interview, but they interviewed me and one other person on the call. Basic "tell me about a time when..." questions, mostly gaging your retail experience and how you handle retail situations. Some questions about style, where you shop, what you think the average Madewell customer is like.
Contacted via phone to organise time in person. I was taken into the office and had a series of questions asked. A practicle situation was roleplayed. Easy process, manager was good.
I applied on LinkedIn and received a phone call to set up an interview. I met with a manager in person and answered a few questions about my background, customer service experience, and personal style.
