I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Vans (Tempe, AZ) in May 2016
Interview
I applied online (I wouldn't go in store for this process and it did take a month or so for me to hear back), but when I did went in for an interview which was with a group of other applicants and was fairly casual. You don't have to dress up into anything professional, just wear what you would normally. I just wouldn't wear other shoe brands though.
I applied online. I interviewed at Vans (Tulsa, OK) in Oct 2025
Interview
Easy and laid back you'll usually do it with another person who is also interviewing for the job. Pretty simple questions such as previous work history and how you deal with people in crowds which you will be dealing with a lot.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mostly how you deal with and overwhelming amount of people
Asked basic questions like what you do in fast paced environment, availability, etc. Talked a lot about sales goals. Those are very important. Also what hobbies you like, where you’d thrive most. Was around 15 minutes.
The interview process was really nice & smooth. The HM not only shared the work life and company, but wanted to know more about me and my work. It was a very laid-back interview and kind-of informal, but in a relaxed way.
