I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (New York, NY) in Oct 2010
Interview
Applied to Macy's and received an email to schedule an interview, The best advice to get an interview at macys is to bullsht the questionairs, if you do good on the questionairs then you will get an interview hands down,. first interview was a group interview with 5 people. the lady went around the table asking question. the second interview was a one on one interview and i got the job on the spot. 1st question was our availbility-make sure your flexible then when you get the job just talk to your manager about your schedule.
Was interviewed for a seasonal position. Was told they have no seasonal positions, once they found out I was a college student. Made no sense to me quickly ended the interview.
The interview process was straightforward and fairly quick. It started with a phone interview from a recruiter or hiring representative who asked general questions about my background, availability, and interest in the role. The tone was professional but conversational, and the interviewer focused on making sure I could handle a fast-paced, customer-facing environment.
I had one interview with the store manager and it lasted for about 45 minutes. The interview was all standard behavioral questions. I was offered the job on the spot.
