I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (Jersey City, NJ) in Apr 2014
Interview
I was called back and had two interviews. The first interview I was asked questions regarding my work history and different scenarios involving customer service. You do not need cosmetic experience to be hired but it is strongly preferred. Second interview I did a demo on a current employee.
Friendly, lots of question and hypothetical situations in regards to customer service. Makeup portfolio was appreciated. Focus is on product knowledge and friendliness. Asked about retail background, what trainings I would be interested in. Also how hard I am willing to work to move up into a management position. Also my timeline I expect to management.
