Interview 25: It's so magical~

My 25th interview was for Macy's the third time! It took place Friday October 5th, 2012.

For the first time, I actually woke up early at 10 am and had breakfast, something I hadn't done before because interviews always made me nervous and I'd end up sleeping at like 3 or 4 in the morning.
My interview was at 11:45 am.

I got dressed and I left to go to Macy's....

When I got there, I was getting so excited, my first interview was a bust and my second one was pointless. But this time, this time felt different and I was wide awake and not sleepy either... I felt a magical energy at work.
When I got there, I waited for about 10 minutes thinking about how much better I was than the two other people in the room looking for an interview.
When I finally got interviewed it was by a woman with very hairy arms, she was very nice though.
The interview went well and the lady even gave me the answer to one of the questions.

She asked these questions which could be helpful to someone else.

○ Why do you want to work at macys?

My answer was that I wanted to work in retail.

○ Do you have retail experience

In which I said no and the woman said they'd train me.

○ If you saw someone stealing a product, what would you do?

I said that I'd tell them not to do that, but she said it was the wrong answer in which I said tell the supervisor.
Apparently, at Macy's... if someone steals something, the employees become ninja's and sneak around the building to watch what that person who stole the first time, it's a big hush hush until the person is caught.

○ What was a time you had to work as a team?

I said one time I went with my friends to take pictures for our photography class.

In the end I said that the reason why they should hire me was because  I am Reliable, honest and Hardworking and they would not be disappointed.

The next day I got an email at 10 am, although I didn't read it until 2 am on the 7th.
It said your basic, "We didn't like you.. but have a nice day!"


Thank you for your interest in the position of Macy's 

We have carefully reviewed your skills and qualifications. Unfortunately, we do not have an appropriate job opportunity for you.

We thank you again for your interest in exploring employment opportunities with us, and wish you much success in your future endeavors.

Human Resources
Macy's


Blah Blah Blah, at this point I'd rather not be notified... I really thought it would work out this time, but  I guess not.
At least I got to see a cute guy at the supermarket later on...

It also had a bad pay, 8.00$ an hour is criminal...
I think all companies should make minimum wage set as 10 an hour, it's a fair pay..I mean a gallon of milk is 5 dollars..

Lesson Learned: Yeah, I really don't know anymore...
I guess, don't get your hopes up and just keep applying...
