I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Nordstrom (Paramus, NJ) in Feb 2017
Interview
fairly strait forward, but you can't go far into your career at Nordstrom without the "thumbs up" from your most recent supervisor which makes it difficult if they were intimidated by your hardworking attitude.
Straight to the point if you have sales experience
Be open and honest about your love of fashion and make sure you are customer focused
Easy questions and some managers will make you answer all questions so be prepared for some lengthy questions that are repetitive
Promotion from Sales person. Interviewed with department manager and store manager. I needed my then current store managers approval as well. After the interview with the Nashville store manager, I was offered the role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Whya re you interested in this role vs a salesperson position?
Sat down and had a conversation for 20 minutes, they asked general questions. Very simple and easy anyone could do it I am sure. Then they offered the job to me immediately
