Entrevista
The interview process at Macy's Herald Square is a bit of a cattle call. You go up to human resources and wait in a room full of other applicants for a human resources associate to speak with you. The woman who interviewed me was pleasant enough. I had never worked in retail before she asked me mainly questions designed to discern whether I knew what was expected of me in the position (it had a "suggestive sales" bent) and how I would interact with customers. She asked me to do a role playing scenario where I tried to sell a new set of Teflon cooking ware to a browser. The job only paid $8 or $9 dollars an hour which I understand is quite low for that kind of job in New York City.

How do you like to be treated by sales representatives when you step in to a store? What kind of service do you consider ideal?
I had no retail experience but I could overhear an interview with a woman who had worked in retail before... She was asked to detail a time she went "above and beyond" to satisfy a customer's needs.
Was interviewed for a seasonal position. Was told they have no seasonal positions, once they found out I was a college student. Made no sense to me quickly ended the interview.

The interview process was straightforward and fairly quick. It started with a phone interview from a recruiter or hiring representative who asked general questions about my background, availability, and interest in the role. The tone was professional but conversational, and the interviewer focused on making sure I could handle a fast-paced, customer-facing environment.
I had one interview with the store manager and it lasted for about 45 minutes. The interview was all standard behavioral questions. I was offered the job on the spot.
