I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomingdale's (New York, NY) in May 2012
Interview
Met with three different people starting with the Human Resource manager. Seemed to take a long time to go through the complete process and a lot of people involved. Although everyone was very nice, there was a lot going on that pulled the attention of the people involved.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What leadership skills did I think I had to bring to the job.
It is a sit down interview inside the back area of the store where the offices are located that is with a higher up ( this is usually a store or area manager) to discuss basic interview questions for a manager role.
Easy. Spoke to Hr. Afterwards I was scheduled to septal to a GM and also a manager that I would be reporting into. After that , about two weeks after I heard from Hr and I got my offer letter
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomingdale's
Interview
Great phone interview with company recruiter. She was enthusiastic, informative, asked great questions, answered my questions. Her follow up was prompt. Took on line assessment- I get why this this done. But waste of time. Next step I met with HR. Late, irrelevant questions, nothing regarding my experience, did not discuss role did not ask me if I had questions. Seemed rushed as soon as it began. Very quick
