      Cosmetics Counter Manager Interview

      19 Aug 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Macy's

      Interview

      I applied online and received an email to do an in store interview. The night before my interview I get a call canceling my interview because they had filled the position. I was extremely upset but then I saw they posted another Dior Cosmetic Counter manager position that same day but at a different mall. I went in for my in store interview, the Dior Vendor and Macy's manager both seemed to love me. A whole MONTH went by and I still hadn't heard back from them. I assumed I didn't get the job. Finally I get a call from the Macy's cosmetic department manager to set up a phone interview. After that the Dior account executive called me and did another interview. I felt like I did great once again. She told me they would make a decision by the end of that week. She told me she would text me her email to send her my resume... She never did. And when I texted her to thank her for the interview I got no response. It has now been three weeks since our talk. I called the store to follow up and they said they still had not made a decision yet.... It has been a total of 2 MONTHS. Absolutely ridiculous and unprofessional.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Macy's

      Interview

      Recieved phone call to come in for in-person interview. Was told to expect an email from the brand tep for a 2nd and final interview. This didn't happen. I followed up a few times to ensure I hadn't missed any communication and was blatantly given the run around and lied to by the hiring manager. She didn't make eye contact during the interview and yawned several times throughout. Had they not wanted to move forward with me then they should have communicated next steps properly vs telling me lies that I'm still being considered and should hear from the rep soon for my 2nd interview. I wouldn't trust working for an individual who's communication and behavior just demonstrated they lack proper training and skills themselves to communicated with applicants. If I can't trust that what you tell me is 100% true at face value then I'm afraid it would have been a bad start to a relationship anyway. Disappointed in my interviewer and the folling communication and lack f respect and integrity shown to me.
