      Cosmetics Sales Associate Interview

      Jan 21, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Mobile, AL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dillard's (Mobile, AL)

      Interview

      In my interview, the manager told me how much she loved me and that I got a second interview and she would call me later in the week to schedule it. She went on and on and on about how excited she was to hire me. Then she never called. So I decided to give her a call. She told me to call another day and she left early so she didn't answer the phone. I left a note and she never called. So I called her again and she said she needed to get with the lady that was going to interview me and that she would call me back the next day. She never called and I didn't either.

      It was a two part interview that lasted a total of 1.5 hours. It was fairly easy to say the least. But I like talking a lot so it didnt seem very long. It may not be like this everywhere .
