Re: Anybody know?

check their websites. and apply online.
stores usually take awhile to get back to you if they're busy. when i use to work for banana republic they took week to reply back to me.

Just apply there anyways. A lot of places do need extra help so it wouldn`t hurt to just bring in your resume! :)

Re: Anybody know?

Sometimes some places are hiring even if they don't have any signs up, or don't necessarily say that they are looking. Just go apply at places you'd like to work, what have you got to lose? I've gotten calls from places like that before, and you might as well try to get a job at a place you'd like to work rather than just apply at places that appear to be hiring. A lot of the time, places have their signs up year-round regardless if they really are looking for anyone anyway.

Re: Anybody know?

mavi is a great company to work for
you get paid pretty well
30 percent off jeans
50 percent off every 3 months or something?
sometimes, you get a free pair of jeans just to "try" them out
also, you guys also have company dinners at nice restaurants that are paid for
oh, and since it is a big company there is always a chance to move up the ladder to other opportunities
ie. buyer, work in the mavi headquarters
