I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Eau Claire, WI) in Oct 2012
Interview
Asked very basic questions
Awkward atmosphere
Some questions were not work related at all
Overall, I might've had a better experience if they had picked a better person to conduct the interview...or just didn't hire the manager in general. She never knew what to say next and came across very unprofessional.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Macy's (Nashville, TN) in Apr 2014
Interview
It was brief, friendly, and casual. Dress in business casual, all black is a plus as that is the uniform. I was asked numerous hypothetical questions about how I would handle various situations that could come up if I worked there. I was also asked about my work history and why I was interested in working at Macy's.
