I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's in Nov 2009
Interview
I applied online and got an e-mail to schedule an interview the same day. I arrived ten minutes early. There were about five other people being interviewed that day. The interviewer asked questions from a sheet such as "what are you strengths and weaknesses?" It was a fairly average interview.
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.
