I applied online. I interviewed at Sephora in Jan 2015
Interview
Received a phone call during which they asked 3 questions. Why did you apply at sephora? Tell us about your experience? What do you think about competition? It was a 10 minutes call. After these questions they called me for the second interview. It was a pretty comfortable time with the managers I met. They told me they will let me know in about 2 weeks time. It was a positive answer.
The interview was held as a group interview where we all took turns answering questions. A couple STAR questions (describe me a time you handled this, resulting in this), and a couple personality based questions.

Question 1
How did you turn a problem into a positive experience
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora (Lynnfield, MA)
Interview
Group interview to start then had a 1 on 1 with the store manager. I was applying for a seasonal position that turned into part time. Because I was interested in being a beauty adviser, I also had to complete a makeup application on an employee.
I've applied through indeed, the HR does the first screening, they first call you to ensure your interest. They then invite you to the store for group interview. You break into a small group of 5-6 people.
