I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (Austin, TX) in Feb 2015
Interview
Group interview process with questions about past work experience in the cosmetic industry and sales. Important to bring a resume and to show passion. Interview was professional and most other interviewees were dressed to impress. Make up and hair should be on-point.
After the interview if you receive the offer they call and check your references. Having great references is really important.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (New York, NY) in Feb 2016
Interview
Took about 3 weeks for interviews and all. First interview with Beauty manager 30 minutes long basic interview questions. Next day did the phone interview with field leader a lot harder. 3rd interview with store manager much easier than both interviews. Definitely have resume submitted, be about customer service which is number in any retail industry.
