I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at American Eagle Outfitters (Edmonton, AB) in May 2016
Interview
I applied online and it took a week for them to email me back asking me to call them. I was scheduled then for a group interview with approx. 9 others. The interview itself took longer than expected because the interviewer had a lot of say and we went around the circle to answer the questions. I'd say it was an alright experience.

Interview
It was a group interview and they took us into the stock room and we took turns answering super-simple questions. I got an interview because I applied near one of the annual hiring dates which is around the beginning of summer and thanksgiving season.

Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at American Eagle Outfitters (Causeway Bay) in Jul 2018
Interview
The interview takes place in a corner at the shop, it was fast and the questions were very reasonable, just some simple situation analysis and you are very probably asked to match an outfit at the end of the interview to prove your basic fashion sense.

Question 1
How would you handle the case when a customer is trying to approach you but you are busy with the cashier work?
The interview was good; the manager was really nice and understood that I was nervous. The interview was very natural and was kind of like a conversation. I made sure to try and be very open and more extroverted than I normally am sometimes. It was a good experience and practice since it was my first interview.
