I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Macy's (Columbia, MD) in Jun 2017
Interview
It was easy to get the interview and then I went to the interview. They called and I answered calls over the phone. They then emailed me with an offer.
Fill out the online application, they will request a recorded interview if they select you, then an in-person interview. Questions are really standard and repetitive, asking about sales, hospitality and customer service.
The department store hiring process includes submitting an application, completing interviews, passing background checks, receiving a job offer, attending onboarding, and completing training before beginning regular work responsibilities. It sounded standard but I got a better job somewhere else.

Interview
Easy and quick. Super nice and just wanted to get it done right. I have had some pretty easy interviews but this one was one I really enjoyed which is crazy to say about an interview.
