I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (Houston, TX) in Mar 2013
Interview
It was very long. Remember to be patient. The main thing they are looking for is someone with great work ethic that wants a career not a job. If you say to them " one day I want to have my own skincare line" or " I want to be a famous makeup artist " - you absolutely will not get hired. It costs thousands of dollars to train you to standards and they do not want you to quit
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me some characteristics of great clown service, how do you give someone elevated service?
There were multiple interviews for this position. Questions were not hard, just wanted to see if you would be a good fit and your true personality/ skill set. Interviews were with different levels of managers and not much longer than 45 min.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Sephora (New York, NY) in Dec 2014
Interview
The process overall was quick and easy. Since it was two weeks before Christmas, I got to meet with the Store Director, General Manager and one of the Lead Managers. They asked about my past experiences and it was not at all scary.
