Fill out the online application, they will request a recorded interview if they select you, then an in-person interview. Questions are really standard and repetitive, asking about sales, hospitality and customer service.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Macy's (Boardman, OH) in Nov 2012
Interview
The hiring process was easy and straight forward; Very promising to landing the job and even becoming a regular worker. Other's are confusing and not so promising. With Macy's, they will tell you up front if you are a great candidate for the job and what exactly is wanted and expected from the job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do to go above and beyond in providing excellent service for a customer?
The department store hiring process includes submitting an application, completing interviews, passing background checks, receiving a job offer, attending onboarding, and completing training before beginning regular work responsibilities. It sounded standard but I got a better job somewhere else.
I interviewed at Macy's (Fruitdale, San Diego, CA)
Interview
Easy and quick. Super nice and just wanted to get it done right. I have had some pretty easy interviews but this one was one I really enjoyed which is crazy to say about an interview.
