Interview
There was a phone call to set up the interview. Dress to impress, it is Neiman Marcus after all. I interviewed with the General Store Manager and two department managers. I met with each for about 25 minutes.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Neiman Marcus (Katy, TX) in Jan 2013
Interview
Applied online, visitations and follow-up by phone isn't necessary. They will usually only accept people with flexible schedules and ability to work weekends, most are turned down because of a tight schedule. The interview wait will take a long time, trust me I was usually the one that would socialize with applicants for up to 20 mins in the fitting room. This may be the only decent retail store that will offer you non-min wage but if you are looking for a long term commitment I would look elsewhere because the environment is very strict and impersonal.
