I interviewed at Windsor Fashions (San Diego, CA) in May 2014
Interview
I applied in person and got called back a few weeks later for an interview. I had two interviews; one with each co-manager. I was pretty nervous because I had never interviewed for a retail position before. However, both managers were friendly and easy-going. The interview questions were pretty straight-forward and nothing really caught me off guard, which was surprising since, like I said, this was my first retail interview. The managers explained the company a bit and I immediately found that the environment was desirable. I hadn't heard from the store for a week so I was a bit discouraged, especially since I had another retail interview at another store a few days later and it was HORRIBLE. However, they called almost two weeks after the interviews and offered me the job.

I applied online. I interviewed at Windsor Fashions
Interview
Sat in the middle of the mall with 3 other girls, supervisor asked typical interview questions and then asked us to describe to her what we think is something “in fashion” right now. Then we went into the store and she gave us each a scenario of a customer (I.e shopping for a cruise) and had us pick a afternoon and evening outfit we’d suggest to the fake customer and present them to her. Fairly quick interview overall
They asked me over and over about a literal few month gap in my working experience which was for school until something bad and personal happened I declined to talk about and said was personal. They kept asking which was inappropriate, I am not going to trauma dump in an interview, sorry lol.
They asked a few questions about your experience in fashion and why you would want to work there. It was a groups interview with 3 people. It was a quick interview around 30 minutes.
