I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Saks Fifth Avenue Stores (SFA) (New York, NY) in Aug 2008
Interview
Accepted job from the saks hr recruiter who made the job sound wonderful and promised promotion and opportunity. She had not idea what she was talking about and was probably spinning whatever she thought I wanted to hear without knowing what the company offers in terms of promotion. She told me I would be readily promoted once entering. That is totally untrue, and the opposite happens here. They pride themselves on saks university but it is pretty lame and they still work on a dos program from the eighties.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Saks Fifth Avenue Stores (SFA) (New York, NY) in Jan 2013
Interview
I met with a buyer and was asked many behavioral questions. the interview was fairly easy and casual. very conversational and did not need prior experience for the job. i would recommend looking up behavioral questions to practice.
