I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Macy's (Sacramento, CA) in Jan 2015
Interview
short and concise, just inquired about experience and knowledge with being a plain clothed detective and investigations of external/internal theft. first was a walk-in interview based off of availability of the manager. Also, it was short and simple including the assistant manger and manager of asset protection with back to back questions based off of my initial experience within the asset protection line of work and my experience from my university.
Fairly easy, more conversation like. Asked traditional interview questions such as how to de-escalate tense situations, tell me about yourself, weaknesses and strengths, tell me about a time when you witnessed something that was wrong and what did you do, where do you see yourself in five years, etc.
Face to Face interview. Key tips to have experience and be confident in your ability to meet the job requirements. Do your homework on what is required and having previous CCTV experience is definitely a plus
