I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Abercrombie & Fitch (Schaumburg, IL) in Aug 2012
Interview
Sat down with General Manager at a nearby bench in the mall, she started off by asking me to "walk her through my resume," followed by pretty typical questions such as "what's your greatest weakness?" and "why should I hire you?" The interview lasted about 30 minutes. I went on a slow day so the staff seemed pretty laid back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I didn't find any of the questions all that surprising but perhaps the one that could be challenging if you don't have retail experience is "how would you handle a difficult customer?"
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Abercrombie & Fitch (Shanghai, Shanghai) in June 2025
