I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Memphis, TN) in Sep 2016
Interview
Applied on line; Email notification they want to meet at the store I applied for the position; Arrived 15minutes early wearing a suit, with hard copy of resume and references in hand. Other candidates were dressed as associates, all black. I was called promptly, the process lasted all of 20 minutes! Very few questions asked. The interviewer was all of 20 something, looked like he didn't review my resume before hand.

Three intensive interviews, and a practical demonstration of my skillset, separated by some nerve wracking time in-between, quite a long process, very competitive as to be expected with such a prestigious well respected sought after employer.

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Boston, MA) in Oct 2021
Interview
The interviewer was very condescending and tried to argue with me about my work experience. Even though I applied for a merchandising position, she recommended me to work another job I had no interest in. Seeing how the interviewer was very unprofessional with me, I wouldn’t have accepted any job they would’ve offered me.
