Initially was sent an email asking for an interview and stating a day and a place no talk about what is easier for me. Was also sent a 14 page grooming guideline. Turned up for the interview and receptionist didn’t process that I was there and therefore I was late to the interview say in the lobby waiting for her to process me. The initial interview was very scripted with 2 ladies not just one. One taking notes and one asking in depth questions. Lasted about an hour. Second stage of the interview same thing I got an email stating the time and place and my feedback on the first interview which was that my nails were too London. I turn up for the trade test had 30 mins to do a makeup look, got feedback there and then which was fine and we spoke about the makeup look for the nars boutique which is winged liner and red lip. It isn’t my usual but I was more than happy to go with it. I get an email with feedback a few days later and there are 2 cons to me and about 7-8 cons, over half of which were made up, and seeing as I had my model there as witness she confirms this. Things so Blatant as my hairstyle was lied about along with things my model had said about her style of makeup being taken as I had said it? Also you are not allowed to talk or advise the client about their skin type in case of offending them, but in order to give a full consultation you must! Very unprofessional. They do not care about artistry in the slightest or individuality. Everyone is like a robot in the way they look and sell.

First phone interview with counter manager Then interview (with store manager and counter manager) Then makeup skills test (with area manager and lead artist) Finally Store approval (with store manager where counter is based)
