I applied through this website and Estée Lauder sent me a digital interview I had to complete within 5 days. It was very simple to use and gave me practise opportunities and ample time to answer all the questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions were standard, specific to the job role.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Clinique (Leeds, England)
Interview
A brief conversation with the account manager, then a second in depth conversation with the area manager over coffee. I then had to met up with the department manager for a store approval - pretty standard stuff for cosmetics. The area manager wanted to know my sales background, very sales focused, the account manager wanted to know how I interacted with customers and the store stressed the unsociable hours they were open at Christmas to make sure I would work them.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Clinique (Winston-Salem, NC) in Sep 2016
Interview
Basically I put in an app on belk. I say maybe 3 weeks later a counter manager calls me in for a interview. Then 3 days later I meet with the business manager and I waited about an hour to meet the cosmetics manager for belk and I get the job. I will say the process is shorter if you go on cliniques web page and complete the talent plus assessment before the interview with the counter manager which I did!
