I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's (Clearwater, FL) in Oct 2012
Interview
The application and interview process was as easy as it can be. I applied online through Careerbuilder.com and received a email back a week later that had me sign in through the site and select a day and time for me to have a interview. The process was very cool and i loved how they have adapted to using technology to help sift out some of the people that don't really care about getting the job. On the day of the interview i met with the HR staff and the hiring manager for the sales floor. Everyone was incredibly nice and they couldn't be anymore sweeter and helpful. The interview process was simple and short.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No question was difficult or unexpected since i used this site to help get an idea of what the process would be like :) Thanks Glassdoor! I plan to use you guys for as long as your around.
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.
