I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty
Interview
Applied online and got a call about 2 days later to schedule my interview for the next day. I basically sat down and she offered me the position because of my past work experience. She went through the usual questions but stated more than once that I already got the position, she just had to go through them anyway. She then asked me if I had any questions. She offered me a pay a lot lower than I requested because they were only hiring for seasonal. I didn't say anything but I guess she could tell I was turned off by it because she said that come February (end of seasonal), I would most likely be kept and I would be able to negotiate my wage. The process took less than a week and the interview itself was less than 10 minutes. The interviewer was very polite and professional. Everything was exactly what you'd expect a retail interview to be like. TIP: express your customer service skills. It's all about the customer!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
-Tell us about your past work experience and what it was like (what you did, what you learned, things like that)
-What made you choose Ulta (it caters to a large crowd: it has high end products, drugstore products, a full hair salon, and skincare)
-Describe a time when you received great customer service (your own experience)
A couple of technical and behavioral questions, overall a smooth process. Share you experiance in sales and passion for helping others in the beauty world. good luckgood luckgood luckgood luckgood luckgood luck
Scenario-based and behavioral questions. Many in relation to customers and management. I was asked a little bit about the public-facing descriptions in my resume; it was nothing too difficult. I felt confident that I got the job by the end.

I interviewed at Ulta Beauty (Houston, TX)
Interview
Straight-forward. One in person one on one interview with a manager. Short process and the manager was friendly. This was during the seasonal hiring time so I started working ASAP.
