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.
