Interview
i was pretty nervous about the interview , so i did my research and came across glass door . im going to be honest the first time i applied they gave me a phone interview and i choked and for obvious reason i didnt get that job. then i reapplied and i got an email to schedule my interview . i didnt want to choke again so i studied every question on this site(which helped me a lot). The manager was really nice and humble. I shook her hand and asked how she was doing etc. My first question was what hours are you available . 2nd question was if i had retail experience . 3rd was if i had ever worked with a team. 4th was What is customer service? And last question was if i knew what a macys card was. I felt like the interview went well, she said she wanted me to work for team and would call me back?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The only unexpected question was what is customer service.
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.
