      Sales Associate Interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Body Central (Dayton, OH) in Sep 2012

      Interview

      I turned an in application in person and was called a few days later for an interview. I applied for a visual merchandising position, but they interviewed me for a sales associate position instead. They did not tell me this until I got to the interview, which I thought was kind of rude. It was a 1:1 interview with one of the managers. I followed her to the stock room and we sat in two chairs across from each other. They asked a lot of questions. Normal questions, like "Why Body Central?" Questions about my life, like "What do you do outside of work?" They also asked me to sell the outfit I was wearing. The only thing they told me about the company was that each sales associate is responsible for their own sales goals. The woman interviewing me told me she used to work for the company that I just left. She kept bashing them during the interview. I didn't know what to say because I know you're not supposed to say anything negative about a former employer. After the interview, she gave me a piece of paper with the store information and a website to take a personality test. You have to call the store to let them know when you are done taking the test. There is no way to know if you passed it or not. Overall, it was just a really awkward interview. It's only been a couple of days, so they might still offer me the job. If they do, I most likely won't take it though.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Body Central in Aug 2014

      Interview

      I was asked to do an online survey since it was a part of the interview process. I called the store manager back to make sure she knew I finished my results so that she could check over them. I get a call back the day of my interview and she tells me that I failed the online survey and because I didn't pass I wasn't able to follow through with the actual interview because it's a store/company policy.

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Body Central (Savannah, GA) in Feb 2014

      Interview

      went to the mall with the intention of applying everywhere haha, but Body Central was one of the first store's I actually went to because I really love the clothes and atmosphere. I walked in, went to the register, and just asked if they had any job applications. Luckily, the person I asked was actually the store manager and she quickly got me one and told me that she was holding interviews later that day. She told me if I was able to stay around, I could get a job on the spot.
