What Macy's Announced for the 2026 Holidays

Macy's, Inc. laid out its season in a September 24 hiring announcement. The company is filling seasonal roles at Macy's, Bloomingdale's and Bluemercury stores and select supply chain sites, with three in-person hiring days at every store: September 24, October 22 and November 19. The first one has passed. Can't make a Thursday? Macy's applicants can also submit a recorded interview online.

The honest part: Macy's named ten top store hiring markets this year, and Atlanta isn't one of them. The hiring day still runs at every store, but Macy's hasn't published a headcount for Georgia or for any single location. Expect steady seasonal hiring, not a mass recruitment, and we won't guess at a number.
