I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Clinique (Overland Park, KS)
Interview
I had an interview with two people, the manager at Macy's and the counter manager. The Macy's manager didn't appear to have that many questions. Almost all questions were sale oriented. There were a couple of questions that were work environment oriented but still sales oriented. For example "if one of your co-workers wasn't making her monthly quota, would you approach her? How would you approach her?" I was told that I made it to the next process of the interview portion, which was the TalentPlus portion, however I never received a call from TalentPlus and when I inquired about it to Macy's/Clinique they brushed me off.

Interview
I did an online interview which consisted of several questions, I then got through to the next stage which was a group interview. It was very laid back and more like a group training exercise. After this I was told I was through to the next stage. I was then given a phone interview and later told I had been put forward for store approval.
