Interview
It was a group interview (me and two other girls) held very early in the morning before the store opened. We filled out a form and were being observed to see if we were talking to each other. Manager came back and said that she hoped we got to know each other while we were filling out forms because we were going to have to state 5 things about the other person. She walked away and gave us 5 more minutes. After this she asked us what do we do, where do we see ourselves in 10 years from now. She was friendly, she observed what we were wearing, retail experience is a must.
Of course she asked us "Why Guess?" ..
She did not state how much they pay at this job (came to find out its $9 for NY locations, no commission.
Then she stated what we would expect from us, it was a little harsh for one girl who never worked retail, i remember she said "Do you have any idea what you would be getting yourself into? This is not like (referring to the girl's current job)." i felt bad for her =/.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Guess? (Cypress, TX) in Nov 2025
Interview
started my interview as seasonal and it was pretty straightforward. Managers should be chill and relax. A lot of behavioral questions was asked and how you deal with situations. If youre seasonal, then you might do a group interview with others.
Really easy, simple just asked about availability and my experience - no specific questions and interviewer was very nice. Easiest interview I’ve ever had, also haven’t recieved an answer yet on whether I was successful
