I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty (Short Pump, VA) in Aug 2015
Interview
Interviewed with the General Manager and was offered the job right after the interview pending a technical interview where I would bring a model. I accepted (only because I needed a job) and then left for another interview at a different salon. Thankfully I got that job as well and accepted. I did not want to work for Ulta because the general manager was rude and made me feel stupid during the interview.

How long have you done hair?
What color lines have you used?
What I am most comfortable doing?
The regional manager was ghosting me when I made several attempts inquiring about the position as hairstylist. I interviewed in February of 2020 and was accepted the position. Sadly Covid came.
I applied/inquired two times after Covid and the manager never called me back. When I finally got her on the phone she was very abrupt, dismissive, and said she is not hiring. That was not true, they are hiring.

Did an in person interview at the store I was going to work at and then did a technical interview in another store close by that had someone trained to do my technical interview
General manager was super sweet, I think every location is different, My location was a new one so everything went by quickly. You need to do a practical interview as well.
