I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Bloomingdale's (Garden City, NY) in Mar 2011
Interview
I went in for an interview and the 1st interview went well so then they asked if i wanted to wait and do a second interview in 20 minutes so I waited, and that interview went well too, then they had asked me for a third interview and said that they would call me. They called me maybe 5 days later to do the third interview and that went well and i had gotten offered the job and placed me, and filled out the application and forms so they could do a background check. They told me that they would call me when to start for training. I got the call 3 WEEKS later and they said that there was a mistake made that the position that was offered to me was not there and kept trying to offer me lower positions. I was without a job the whole time. The people were very friendly there, play up customer service skills to impress them.
It was remote, fast and easy. Two step process, first with the HR manager, later with Sales Manager. A few questions related to my job experience. It was important to be flexible with your schedule.

Interview
Really quick! Took only about three days. I interviewed with one other person and a manager and then one on one with another manager. It was a really relaxed interview and felt like a conversation
