I initially called the store just to see if they were hiring. Im a student and was in the market for a part time job. Whomever picked up said yes and that I must pick up the application instore. Went in on a Thursday filled out the application. Personally handed it to the manager. They looked over it at that moment and I was asked to come in the following Monday. Went in on a Monday for the interview. I was taken to the stock room and was interviewed by two managers. One was observing more than anything. Later on that same day was called about the job offer.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Zara (Costa Mesa, CA) in Sep 2015

I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Zara (Vancouver, BC) in Sep 2016
Interview
Summary:
I applied in person with confidence. Was asked to come back in for an interview the next day. The interview was very casual. The questions were still pretty serious, but it didn't feel like an interrogation at all.
Details:
The female manager took me outside the store and had me sit down with her on a bench side by side. She went through my cover letter/resume and the application I wrote out.
We talked for a bit and I was asked fairly basic interview questions. Got a call 15 minutes later on my way home and she told me I got the job.
Great interview process, but it all varies on who the manager is/which store you're applying to.
