I applied in person in early April and never heard anything back. Because of this, I called the second week in May to ask if they would be doing anymore hiring and a week later I was called in for an interview. The process was very similar to those described on this website. I interviewed with SIX other girls so it was a little difficult to get a word in edgewise, but it was very laid back. I did not answer every question but I did answer most. The manager seemed very impressed by the fact that I was the only one who knew the store's return policy (which applies to the burnt candl question). I also practiced the whole "talk about your favorite product" thing and I feel that the preparation worked to my advantage. I just had the interview today and will find out Sunday whether or not I will be offered a position, but I feel very confident!
