I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at American Eagle Outfitters (Bloomington, IL) in May 2013
Interview
Very laid back. Asked questions that related to style and how well you work with others. About two situation questions. They were pretty basic and easy enough to answer. There were very simple and questions you would expect for working in a retail environment. I did have to take a personality type quiz after the interview, but they mentioned it didn't affect the interview.
They just asked me to talk about my past experience and about myself and my hobbies. They also asked why I wanted to work there and what my favorite trends were.

Did the interview right in front of the store, but it was chill, the lady was nice. She started with basic questions, then went to scenarios. After it was just over and she said she'd give a call.
