I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Express (Capitola, CA) in Feb 2013
Interview
One on one interview with one of the lower managers. Interview took place outside of the store on a bench inside the mall. Manager was friendly. Difficult to get an interview with Express however. Tried for months until I noticed a friend working for Express and she helped me get my foot in the door. Very selective.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Do you feel comfortable giving clothing advice to both men and women?
Interview was quick. Manager thoroughly outlined job responsibilities and was friendly. Felt like I had a clear understanding of the job and what was expected of me. Spent time asking me about my qualifications and how those would apply to the job skills needed in the store.
The interview lasted about 20 minutes, she was very professional when speaking. She went through a list of questions instead of making the interview feel like a conversation. I enjoyed the interview process but I never ended up getting the position due to lack of experience.
I applied online. I interviewed at Express (Edison, NJ) in Jan 2021
Interview
Straight forward. It’s not hard to get hired here. They ask some super obvious questions and skirt around the right answer if you happen to fall off track. One time interview and was hired immediately.
