I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's (Cincinnati, OH) in May 2010
Interview
The Macy's recruiters came to my school for the first round of interviews. I was selected to continue to the second round of interviews which was held at their offices. At the time, they were hiring for five or so positions into an entry level executive training program. Around twenty students attended the day long session. We were given presentations, panel discussions, and lunch with executives. The afternoon consisted of three separate interviews. While I did not receive an offer, the day was enjoyable and surprisingly laid back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name a time that you faced a difficult situation. What were the steps you took to solve the problem?
I applied online. I interviewed at Macy's (Sugar Land, TX)
Interview
Easy and Quick. But you need to know your sales background. And speak with managers professionally.
They want you to be prepared and knowledgeable of your skills.
Example: I have an experience selling to different cosmetic sales.
Within the hiring department, a discernible casual demeanor is evident, at times bordering on inattentiveness. Moreover, there have been notable instances where certain managers have displayed rudeness, potentially influencing the overall workplace atmosphere and dynamics. This combination of casualness and managerial behavior warrants attention for a more positive work environment.
