I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (New York, NY) in Feb 2010
Interview
We had two group interviews. It was kind of weird, we had to dress in VS Pink attire and see ourselves to the room by marketing one of the clothing items we had on that was from VS. I also thought it was a bit intimidating because BOTH interviews were group interviews and there were three different people each time interviewing us. I ended up probably being too nervous to sell myself and land the job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you went out of your way to offer customer service to someone at a previous job?
I was asked to sell a pen to the interviewer. I believe the answer they’re looking for is for you to start asking questions about what the customer needs/is looking for in a pen, then explain how that pen can meet those requirements.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you improved a process at your job.
Quick and simple, group interview with many other applicants. I applied for seasonal work and was kept after. We each had our own moment with the hiring manager and it was a quick process

Question 1
What about Victorias Secret makes you want to work for us?
They needed a cashier badly, so the interview was really quick and easy. I had a nice conversation with the shop manager, we talked about my previous experience and availability.
