I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gap Inc. (Gallatin, TN)
Interview
It was very similar to any interview, asked me the typical questions. It was pretty fast and also in a group setting. I was nervous going into this interview, but the nerves went away once they started the questions.
The interview process was quite smooth and felt quite easy. The nervous feeling melted away easily when speaking to one of the interviewers as the conversation felt comfortable rather than awkward.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what did you like most about your previous job?
why should Gap hire you?
why are you leaving your current job?
have you ever had an experience dealing with a customer/co-worker who is distressed/angry? how did you deal with that situation?
Easy group interview, comfortable roundtable setting. All of the supervisors will ask you very broad questions which are very easy to answer. During the busy season, they will honestly just check you for a pulse.
