The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Springfield, MO) in Aug 2010
Interview
I had applied for a job at Macy's, they called me and said I sounded great and made me think I was getting the job! then they said I don't reach minimum age requirements! I'm 17, I researched before applying and someone that's 16 works there.
I guess it depends on the state.
Other Sales Associate interview reviews for Macy's
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.
