      Beauty Advisor Interview

      May 30, 2013
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Cerritos, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Macy's (Cerritos, CA) in Jan 2013

      Interview

      Applied online on a Thursday, got an email asking to set up an interview the next day. Went in on a Tuesday (earliest available) and waited for a while. The manager was having a busy day downstairs so she was a bit late. She was super friendly and very understanding. She asked me all sales-related questions, and she wrote down my responses/rated them. At the end of the interview, she told me that the position I applied for had opened on Sunday and she filled it on Monday, but she was still interested in hiring me when something else opened up. She gave me her card, I emailed her, and emailed me back a couple months later when a position opened up. Sadly I no longer had full availability, but I definitely appreciated her enthusiasm.

      Question 1

      If I remember correctly, she asked me how I would boost my personal clientele base. I don't quite remember my answer.
