I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's in May 2010
Interview
There was not an empty room in the human resources department, so I was with several other people in the room while being interviewed. They through a lot of unexpected questions at me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name a specific experience in which you received above and beyond service from a sales associate?
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.
