I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Birmingham, AL) in Jul 2019
Interview
The only reason I didn’t have the best experience was because they made a 20 minute interview take an hour and a half because they were so unorganized. My interview was scheduled for 11am and I didn’t even speak to anyone until 11:40. I felt that they didn’t value my time and it was extremely unorganized. As soon as the interview was over they offered me a position other than what I applied for. I felt like they could have told me they were going to hire from within the beauty department before I wasted almost 2 hours of my day at the interview.

Question 1
Describe a work accomplishment that you are proud of.
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
