I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Avon in Jun 2010
Interview
pretty straightforward interviewing process but did take a long time - possibly be/c many people were traveling? But also went through a recruiter who kept me apprised of what was going on.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Avon (New York, NY) in Jan 2007
Interview
Avon interviews usually happen with HR, followed by category managers and the category VP. It is very much a personality test as much as it is behavioral and a skills assessment. The Avon culture is very consensus driven, and the ability to forge relationships and get buy-in is critical. While eagerness is valued - personalities that are too strong may be a put off in this "nice" culture.
