I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macy's (Plymouth Meeting, PA) in Oct 2013
Interview
They asked very cookie cutter questions (pretty much all the ones that other people noted here). When I arrived I was waiting with another person who was applying for the same position. After answering all of the questions (approx 10 min worth) I was informed there was in fact no openings, they were interviewing for "back up" people in case those who they had hired backed out.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I always have difficulty with the "what was the biggest problem you faced and over came in a work situation" question, which was asked of me.
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.
