I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Macy's (Columbus, OH) in Jul 2009
Interview
I got a call from the visual manager to set up a first interview. I was one of several highly qualified prospects for the position. They were looking for more than a design background, they wanted spirit, energy, and potential, the whole package. Then I was one of 8 that made it to the 2nd round of interviews with the DVM and VM. That went very well. I had very high energy and they were inpressed with my portfolio. They more or less wanted to see how I reacted with them, not so much what I had to offer. Visual works as a team, and they want to hire people who will mesh well with there team.

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Boston, MA) in Oct 2021
Interview
The interviewer was very condescending and tried to argue with me about my work experience. Even though I applied for a merchandising position, she recommended me to work another job I had no interest in. Seeing how the interviewer was very unprofessional with me, I wouldn’t have accepted any job they would’ve offered me.
