I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's (Riverside, CA) in Feb 2020
Interview
Took a while for someone to open the office door for me and even longer to see me. Everyone walked by as if I wasn’t there. I honestly almost left after 30 minutes of waiting. The cosmetics manager wasn’t there so another department manager interviewed me. It went by pretty quick and I had an alright experience. The manager was very friendly and easy to talk to. Listen to the questions carefully because there are mainly 3 parts to each question they ask, so make sure you answer them completely.

Tell me about a time where you overcame a conflict
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
