I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Face Reality Skincare in Sept 2025
Interview
The interview process was so long and drawn out. At every stage, I received positive feedback and kept moving forward, which gave me hope that I was a strong fit for the role. After seven interviews — yes, seven — and being told it was still part of the first round, I received an email saying they decided to move forward with another candidate.
It was honestly disheartening. After investing that much time and energy, it’s hard not to feel frustrated and a little let down.
I interviewed at Face Reality Skincare (Danville, CA)
Interview
Long, but you get to meet a lot of people all the way up to the CEO. Friendly people. Mission driven company. About 70 employees. They want to be known as The Acne Brand.

Question 1
Explain a time you improved a marketing process or strategy. What was your role and the outcome.

Interview
They really shouldn’t bring in multiple candidates into their office and walk them around. Most companies will only just bring the final candidate so you’re not giving people false hope or making unemployed people waste gas.
I think overall the teams are inexperienced, esp at the director level and up and it shows during the process and with someone of the questions. Most people didn’t seem to have much real life work experience and there is zero diversity, which is odd because diversity in skin color is especially important in skincare. They were fine but it felt like an immature company.
