I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's (Pasadena, CA) in Sep 2011
Interview
I was interviewed by a nice lady and then she left and got another lady who asked me a couple of questions and they told me they were very impressed by me and that they would call me as soon as a position opens. I was pretty pissed b/c I though they already had a position available
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
have you been in a situation where a co-worker has acted unethiclly?
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.
