I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Sephora (New York, NY) in Aug 2016
Interview
My interview process was very smooth. I was asked typical interview. I was asked to perform a makeup makeover on the spot and I wasn't expecting that so I didn't have any of my own makeup brushes. I was supplied makeup brushes from the senior artist and another cast member was used as a model. I was offered the job in about 2 days. They made an offer of 17.50 p/h and I then asked for $19.00, they settled with 18.00 p/h. I was hired as full time however that does not mean you will work 40 hours a week. Full time at sephora is up to 32 hours a week. I wish that was explained to me during the interview because it would have affected my decision. I ended up working between 20 to 32 hours a week.
I applied online. I interviewed at Sephora (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2017
Interview
Lot's of questions. Interview was about an hour. Was welcoming. Just REALLY a lot of questions! They ask'd scenario questions. IE: if you were in this situation what would you do? etc etc etc.
I applied online. I interviewed at Sephora (Richmond, BC) in Jun 2017
Interview
After a brief phone interview, there was a group interview, then a demo interview where they see your makeup skills. The interviewers were extremely nice and made all the applicants feel at ease. Don't treat the group interview as a professional interview, they want to see how you mingle with other applicants. Be outgoing and always smile
