The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nordstrom (Newark, DE) in Mar 2011
Interview
First had a phone interview then was asked back for a one on one interview with the hiring manager of the Juniors department. It was very laid back and casual. Then had a one on one interview with the store manager. I heard back a week later that I got the position. I have been with the company since April. It is a great company for advancement. Must be outgoing, personable and a hard worker or you will not stay with the company long.
A few questions with someone then you’ll meet with a manager in a department they think you would good for. The department manager had me pick out an outfit for a pretend customer and describe why I picked certain items
