I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomingdale's (Tysons Corner, VA) in Dec 2015
Interview
I was recruited through indeed.com by the HR Manager. I sent him an email out of curiosity and decided to come in for an interview. I was told it would be a group interview but it wasn't - I met privately with him in his office and he basically told me because of my background he wanted me to meet the dept manager right away.
I met the dept manager the next Saturday and the brand executive the following Thursday. I was made an offer the next week.
