I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty (Philadelphia, PA) in Aug 2015
Interview
I applied online about a month ago. I received a call last week (8/20/15) and was asked to interview today (8/27/15). Because the location is still under construction, the interview was held at a local coffee shop. I met with who am I assuming was the store manager and with the Prestige Consultant Manager. The interview went so well! It was super laid back. Both ladies were extremely friendly and made me feel at ease immediately. I had originally applied for a Lancome Beauty Advisor but since I had already gotten hired somewhere else while waiting for them to respond, I was not able to accept a full time position. But they were super nice and accommodating. They said they would work around my current job schedule and offered me a part time position as a Prestige Beauty Advisor! I start training in 2 weeks and I am so excited!!

Straight-forward. One in person one on one interview with a manager. Short process and the manager was friendly. This was during the seasonal hiring time so I started working ASAP.
