I applied online. I interviewed at Vans in Mar 2021
Interview
They will first send you a sort of self interview where you send video of yourself answering questions. Do it. Management often won’t even look at applicants until they have. My interview was over zoom due to covid but it was honestly a pretty chill conversation where you have as much opportunity to see if the company is a good fit for you as they do. She told me at the end of the interview I got the job and we went from there. From what I understand they are going to be a bit tougher in hiring going forward.
