I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's in Oct 2011
Interview
They send you to a hotel at the HQ and the first day you are charmed by the Macy's culture including a wine and dine with executives. The second day, they get straight to business. You are put in a group and go through the interview stations in the group throughout the day (8am-4pm). You will interview individually with an executive (mostly conversational) with common questions: "Tell me a time when..." You will also 2 presentations. One of them, you will study a department scorecard and suggest how you will improve the department/employee logistics. Don't focus on numbers too much. The other presentation is in a group setting and for about half an hour they will analyze how you work in a team to resolve the issue at hand. You will also do another one-on-one interview that asks questions about the personality test online. Try to stick with your initial answers.

Interview
The interview process was fairly easy going. Recruiters from Macys came to my university and had two rounds of information sessions. In order to advance to the second information session, you had to be invited by the recruiter to participate. After the second information session, a majority of the candidates were invited to the one-on-one on campus interview. If you pass that interview, they will get in contact with you to attend an on-site interview which is also the final interview.

The program recruits heavily at my school so I went to one of their meet and greets, met a recruiter and learned more about the program. I applied and accepted an initial interview-- 2 thirty minute back to back interviews. Was accepted to second on-site interview.
