Interviewed Nov 2011 in New York, NY (took a day)
Sat in a room filled with others having 1-1 interviews as well. Asked me basic interview questions like: why Macy's? What would you do if you caught one of your coworkers stealing? And tell me about a time you've shown great customer service? After all questions I was instructed to wait to speak to another manager. After talking to that manager I was immediately hired on the spot.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Washington, DC (took 3 days)
Was first asked to do a group interview. An individual showed up late and was told to leave. They obviously care about punctuality. Woman asked typical questions "Why do you want to work here?" What makes you qualified to work here?" "Is english your only language. The second interview just involved the formalities. I got to ask questions and was told to give my resume and hours available. Overall relatively easy, they show interest in people who are bilingual.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Southfield, MI (took a day)
I was asked basic questions, what are your strengths/weaknesses. I was extremely nervous and it showed because I didn't speak loud enough. The interviewer ended the interview a little early because if this. I guess if she wasn't able to hear e, how would the customers.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took a day)
I filled out an applicaition on line. About a week later I got a call asking to come in for an interview. About three days later I gotta call asking if they could switch days because they had a huge sale goin on and would not have any one availabe to interview. Then gotta third call asking if I could just come in for an open house. When I showed up I was not even on the list. They interviewd me asking stupid questions like "what would you do if you seen an employee take $5" They told me thay would call but never heard anything back from them. This was during christmas time.
