I applied online. I interviewed at Macy's in Jun 2013
Interview
I applied online and got an email to schedule an interview the next day. I scheduled an interview for the the next week on Thursday (which was today). I was 5 minutes early for my appointment. It took about 10 minutes for me to be waited on before my interview took place. Everyone was pretty friendly and I got pretty good vibes. My interview was pretty simple only 6 or 7 questions. At the end off the interview she told me my answers were good and the account manager would be giving me a call in the next couple days for the phone interview. My questions were:
Tell me a group success you've had
Tell me about yourself
Name a time you had to sell something to a stranger
Whats your availability?
Are you comfortable applying cosmetics to other people's faces?
How would you build a relationship with your customers?
Currently waiting on the next interview :)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you build a relationship with your customers?
Very unorganized interview process, by the time they got back to me I already accepted another offer. I don’t even think they knew I was suppose to have an interview that day. Confusion from start to finish

the interview was straightforward and the manager was very friendly and professional. The interview was also very long and thorough. I would come extra prepared and with a highly professional attitude.
