I applied in-person. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Chico's FAS in Aug 2010
Interview
Applied in-store and received call-back from Store Manager. Standard interview questions read from a form.
Interest expressed. Second call to advise a second interview would be forthcoming. Second interview was with Regional Manager, which was very positive and encouraging. 30 days later, I received a call to meet again with the Store Manager and accepted the offer.

Question 1
There were no unexpected questions. Very standard.
There were two rounds, one with the SM then one with the DM. I got an offer same day, which happened to be my birthday! It was a great role and I appreciate it

Question 1
My experience with visual merchandizing and my past as a trainer for new employees
Received a phone call asking me to come to the location I applied to on a certain day. I showed up 15 minutes early but was happy to wait until my scheduled time. I waited half an hour past my scheduled time because the DM was 30 minutes late. When she arrived she didn't even apologize, and then rushed me thru the interview. I never heard from them again. Left a very bad impression of that store.
Quick and Easy: chat with SM, then have an even speedier chat with DM on another day. Then they will offer you a position or potentionally just not get back to you, like any other employer.
