Saw the position was open, so reached out to the listing recruiter to begin the conversation. Phone interview with recruiter, in-person interview with a Sr General Manager at a neighboring store, in-person interview with the District Manager, phone interview with the Regional Manager. I already knew other people within the organization who also reached out to the District Manager to recommend me from the inside. Because the recruiters work directly for Gap, not contract, once I passed the recruiter interview everything was handled by the District Manager. The process took nearly 8 weeks from the initial phone interview to offer. Gap uses Strengths Finder and Emotional Intelligence 2.0 for field leadership, so having done both of those and being able to speak to my Strengths and EI was very helpful in the process.

Very long interview process took overall a month, with interviews constantly being rescheduled. About 4 interviews you have to have all in total, with different levels of management and human resource.
