I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Aurora, IL) in Dec 2019
Interview
I arrived about 30 minutes before my interview, not a single person was in the office space. I stood around for 15 minutes then went out on the floor to ask for help, the woman advised me she was unable to help and I needed to just wait until the main receptionist came in. I had nothing else to do so I waited around, once the receptionist arrived, about 15 minutes after my scheduled interview time slot, she informed me that the person who was supposed to interview me was out of office for the day so she set up for me to interview with the manager. Turns out the manager interviewing me was the woman I asked for help the first time. We sat down and she immediately notified me that the position was no longer available but they could interview me for a stock position. So, I wasted over an hour just to be told the position was no longer available.

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.
