I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's in Jun 2008
Interview
I walked into the store, spent 45 minutes filling out a survey, then met with an HR representative to discuss positions available that I would be interested in. I was scheduled for an interview that same day with the selling manager and was given an offer immediately. Everyone was very friendly, almost "perky."
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe a time when you went out of your way for a 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.
