I applied online. I interviewed at Torrid (Everett, WA) in May 2016
Interview
Applied online, got a phone call within two weeks to set up an interview for a few days later. I was told I was getting interviewed by the store manager and I believe the assistant manager. When I first arrived, they told me to go around the store and pick out 1 or 2 outfits as a simple preliminary test to see your sense of fashion. I was then taken to the back room for the interview. Questions we're standard, others were about fashion.
The experience wasn't the best, I had the vibe that the manager who was interviewing me, didn't want to be there or want to do the interview, and felt a negative vibe of attitude towards me.
