I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Bath & Body Works in Jun 2021
Interview
Was contacted by phone to schedule interview for 2 days later. Arrived for interview and met with the Assistant Manager. The interview itself lasted only about 10 minutes. After reading my resume only asked 2 questions before offering the job. Honestly I had more questions for them than they did for me. Not much was told about the company or position expectations unless I specifically asked.
All in all seemed very rushed and desperate, did not have good (or rather prepared) answers for a lot of the questions I asked.

Interview
Group interview. They asked us our availability, and to tell them something about us. There were 3 of us, and the whole thing lasted about 30 minutes. 2-3 questions and in the end we needed to "sell" to one of the interviewers one of the products they had to choose from.

Involved group interview, asking a lot of scenario based questions and how to build a genuine connection with customers. There were times were the interviewer would act as the customer and you would be tested on what to do.
