I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (Tigard, OR) in July 2016
Interview
Applied online and was called a few days later for a group interview for the following week. It was 5 ladies including myself, the cash wrap coordinator and a manager. Both ladies were super nice, made the entire interview comfortable. I was invited back to meet with the store director. They called me a week later saying they were interested in having me on the team but I ended up declining since I accepted a really great opportunity elsewhere. They were so awesome to ask me if the could keep my application for the holidays, and I told them yes. Thank you Sephora for making the process easy and comfortable!
My advice for the interview: Wear all black (I wore a black blazer and shirt, black skinny pants, and black heels), bring your resume and cover letter, be sure to practice your answers before your interview, and just be happy! Don't go on and on about how you love make-up, that's why you're there, you need to make it clear WHY you want to work in makeup, you need to be a team player and someone who is focused on making your clients happy.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you feel about store policies, and have you ever broken a rule or policy?
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (Lynnfield, MA)
Interview
Group interview to start then had a 1 on 1 with the store manager. I was applying for a seasonal position that turned into part time. Because I was interested in being a beauty adviser, I also had to complete a makeup application on an employee.
I've applied through indeed, the HR does the first screening, they first call you to ensure your interest. They then invite you to the store for group interview. You break into a small group of 5-6 people.
