      Visual Merchandiser Interview

      2 May 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's in Apr 2012

      Interview

      I applied for this job using Macysjobs.com. The Taleo system that Macy's uses very quickly recognized me as a possible good candidate. Unfortunately, it was clear that the hiring manager had only seen my resume for seconds as I saw the lady from HR take what I believe was my paperwork to her. I believe that if hiring managers were allowed to screen applicants I would not have been called at all. The hiring manager made me wait for over 20 minutes to be interviewed while she completed her previous appointment. The interview largely consisted of the hiring manager asking for me to talk about my self at first. She then asked if I had any questions. It was clear from the first few seconds that she had no real interest in me. I was just a computer pick. I could have done without the interview being scheduled at all since I clearly did not meet the preconceived notions that the hiring manager had for her team. The rejection email came more than 48 hours later, but I could tell before the end of my 20 minute interview that it had been a waste of time.

      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Macy's (New York, NY) in Dec 2022

      Interview

      Three intensive interviews, and a practical demonstration of my skillset, separated by some nerve wracking time in-between, quite a long process, very competitive as to be expected with such a prestigious well respected sought after employer.

      Question 1

      How I would demonstrate display various themes, convey various moods.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boston, MA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Boston, MA) in Oct 2021

      Interview

      The interviewer was very condescending and tried to argue with me about my work experience. Even though I applied for a merchandising position, she recommended me to work another job I had no interest in. Seeing how the interviewer was very unprofessional with me, I wouldn’t have accepted any job they would’ve offered me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      “Did you apply to this position just because you were looking for a job?”
