I applied online. I interviewed at Urban Outfitters (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2015
Interview
A three part interview, including a video interview at the beginning and about 3 weeks in between the in person interviews, which in my opinion, is too long between interviews when you really need a job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They mostly ask superficial questions in the first interview and check to see if you can comply with their policies, that's really it. The second interview (usually with the store and regional manager in my experience) is a bit more nitty gritty and includes actual ASM experience questions.

Interview
Lengthy but they get back to you pretty fast and keep you updated. Sometimes the interview is with 3 different people so it takes a while to hear the decision but if rejected it takes even longer to get an updated email.
Pretty easy, asked very basic questions. Asked team based questions, about character, and how you handle conflict. You interview with the Store Manager and Visual Merchandising Manager then move onto the District Manager for the final interview.
