Interview process was really easy. I got a call maybe 2 weeks after I applied there. A girl named Britney called and was super accommodating to my interview schedule because my brother has just passed away. Went in for the interview the following week and was hired on the spot
A group interview with behavioral questions and standard makeup knowledge assessment. Some questions involved what to do with agitated customers or working with people you have conflict with. The interview lasted around an hour
I applied online. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty (Silver Spring, MD)
Interview
The interviewer was warm and friendly and seemed to love my passion for beauty and brand familiarity, but I was sadly passed over for someone with more recent retail experience.
Well, it was a group interview. We were like 10 people at the little room. The manager started to ask questions about our previous experiences and how do we overcome any challenging moment.
