I applied in-person. I interviewed at Bath & Body Works (Knoxville, TN) in Sep 2012
Interview
I printed off the application that was online, filled it out, and took it to the store. A few days later the store called me and set up an interview for a few days later. When I arrived, I found out that it would be a group interview, but it was with only one other candidate.

Tell about a great shopping experience that you had in another store.

Interview
Printed the application from the website and handed it in. Got an interview for noon that day. It was me and three other people and it was pretty laid back. She had us pick our favorite item and tell her why it was our favorite. Mostly talked about the store and what would be happeneing if we got hired. Very painless interview. I just had mine today so I don't know if I've been hired but I'm praying I am!

I applied in-person. I interviewed at Bath & Body Works
Interview
I read up on the posts on this website, and the interview was consisted of what everyone claimed. Before the interview, I briefly studied the products and the company on bath and body works website. Yes, it was a group interview, and the woman whom I was interviewing with had an intense customer/retail experience that intimidated me. I, on the other hand, had no retail experience.
Basically...
1) I picked a product that I could explain the benefits of the product really well.
2) I knew the return policy
3) I tried my best to remain confident and cheerful even though the woman next to me was nailing the interview...
Honestly, I gave up all hopes after the interview and assumed that I was not going to be hired. Come on, everybody wants to hire experienced people, even in retail stores. However, I got a call a week later after they checked my references that I was hired, and the woman was hired also.
