I applied in-person. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty in Sept 2013
Interview
I applied toward the end of July 2013 online as well as did the survey. Then I got a call sometime in mid August about the job interview. Now, the Ulta I applied for was not open it was still under construction so the manager told me to get interviewed at her location which was and arm and a leg away from me because I have no car currently. So, I agreed. Then later I called and asked her to transfer the interview to a location closer to me. And she gladly and ever so nice did. I really appreciated that. So, in my areas location I had my interview rescheduled twice but I kept in contact with both managers so they already knew who I was prior to the day I actually interviewed. Luckily, I loved the managers and apparently the feeling was mutual. And to cut the story, I got the job. Now, as for the interview process, they took me to the "back room" and it was a one on one. She was friendly, everyone was friendly we laughed made jokes...it didn't even feel like an interview.
She asked me 3 real questions.
1.) Tell me about yourself.
2.) Why Ulta?
3.) What do you have to offer?
A couple of technical and behavioral questions, overall a smooth process. Share you experiance in sales and passion for helping others in the beauty world. good luckgood luckgood luckgood luckgood luckgood luck
Straight-forward. One in person one on one interview with a manager. Short process and the manager was friendly. This was during the seasonal hiring time so I started working ASAP.
Scenario-based and behavioral questions. Many in relation to customers and management. I was asked a little bit about the public-facing descriptions in my resume; it was nothing too difficult. I felt confident that I got the job by the end.
