I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Madewell (Glendale, CA) in Oct 2014
Interview
The hiring process was very different for me. I went to the store dressed in madewell clothing and I directly met with the manager to submit my application and resume. she asked me a few questions, then told me they'll be hiring seasonal workers in a few weeks and if my application meet there requirements I wouldn't be getting another interview. (At the time, I didn't realize I was being interviewed when she asked those questions.)
I waited 2-3 weeks and I received a call from the manager and they hired me on the spot. I did NOT go through a formal interview process.

Why madewell?
What stores do you like to shop at?
What was it like working in your previous job?
Contacted via phone to organise time in person. I was taken into the office and had a series of questions asked. A practicle situation was roleplayed. Easy process, manager was good.
I applied on LinkedIn and received a phone call to set up an interview. I met with a manager in person and answered a few questions about my background, customer service experience, and personal style.
