I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (McAllen, TX) in Aug 2024
Interview
You will receive a notification to do a virtual interview. Luckily, I received a phone call the following day from the department manager to come in the following day for an interview. I did not have to do the virtual interview after all. I had my interview with the department manager first than the store manager a day later. The store manager informed me they have several interviews before they made their decision. He also mentioned it will take a couple of days to hear back. Wish everyone good luck on your job hunt!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: Tell me about yourself?
Q: How would I sell a Macy's card?
Q: How would I handle an upset customer?
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.
