I applied to Macy’s online and completed their self-paced interview recording. The next morning, at 6:14 AM, I received two emails stating I had been OFFERED THE POSITION I applied for—not an interview, not a maybe, but a JOB OFFER with ONBOARDING DATES. I didn’t see this until a few hours later.
When I clicked the "Respond to Offer" button and entered the verification code, I got an error: "Job offer can't be seen anymore." Thinking this was a mistake, I emailed macysjobs@macys.com for clarification. An hour later, I got an automated response saying the job had been closed and to check their site for other listings.
Are you serious? This is what you're doing to people in 2025? You're sending out actual job offers—with onboarding dates—only to yank them away within HOURS? No warning, no human response, no accountability—just an automated email telling me, oh well, tough luck.
This is beyond unprofessional. People rely on job offers to plan their lives, their bills, their future. If Macy’s operates like this during the hiring process, I can’t even imagine what working there must be like.
Wouldn’t waste my time applying again. I don’t understand why you’re closing so many stores across the country to focus on the remaining ones when you can’t even offer a simple human touch during the hiring process.
Pathetic.
