I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zara
Interview
There was a job fair hosted downtown where walk in candidates could apply for positions at all Zara's across Ontario. I and my friends decided to check it out. The process was fairly long, waited for about an hour to get an interview with the founding members and management. The interview itself was a group interview which lasted about 15-20 minutes. They asked pretty basic questions about customer service and previous retail experience. Two weeks later they contacted everyone by email.

lengthy and tedious, i don't see that a fashion sense is a requirement to gain employment. was ghosted as far as follow-up communication. did not ask many questions about past retail experience

Visited the store and inquired about hiring opportunities. I was connected with the hiring manager and completed a straightforward in-person interview. The process was professional, welcoming, and provided insight into the role.
