The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty in May 2011
Interview
Met with DM and was invited back to the store to meet some of the team. Had the opportunity to ask current store management questions about the team, the store, and the company. Follow-up interview with recruiter. There is normally a third interview with the Regional VP, but I was able to bypass this step. A packet was sent to my home with an offer letter and info for drug screening. Drug screening took about 7 days to produce results. Recruiter and DM were so excited to job offer that the offer was made over the weekend, even though they were both technically off.

Question 1
The interview flowed like a conversation, not a question and answer period.
Online & ghosted there’s a very quick start in the beginning but then after the first interview, I was completely ghosted and I emailed twice with zero communication back, the interviewer was very kind and polite, but the frustration was all through the lack of communication
The Interview with district manager and then one other dm , one was in person and rte other virtually over the phone on teams. Each interview was about an hour
