I applied online. I interviewed at Sunglass Hut (New York, NY) in June 2017
Interview
The interview was mainly behavioral to see how well one can interact with others. General questions about availability and flexibility to see when you can work. You can be hired on-site and start shadowing a current employee.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do if a customer was to act unreasonably in the store
Asked about experience, situational questions (was there ever a time where), if I'm interested in fashion, and register skills. Then the second in person part was role playing approaching a customer, giving advice, and testing a little knowledge about sunglasses like shapes and color theory.

It really depends on your manager as there’s no specific set guidelines. Generally easy questions and basic questions regarding sales. I’ve helped my manager come up with scenarios on top of some easy basic questions.
