      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      How do you handle confrontation
      Answer question

      Interview

      My interview process took about five days. First I received a call from the General Manager to set up an interview. The interview processes started off with tell me about your experience and was pretty extensive with questions like, “Tell me about a time you had an unsatisfied customer, how did you turn it around?”, etc. It was a very comfortable conversational interview. The manager proceeded to tell me that she had a few more candidates to interview and if ulta wanted to proceed me further through the process she would call me to set up a phone interview with the district manager. Two days later I recorded that call, then the following day i was interviewing with the DM. The phone interview went in depth with my experience and I learned a lot about the job and requirements. It went very well, the district manager was extremely friendly. Two days later I was contacted by the Store manager with an offer! It was an extremely fast and smooth process.

      Prestige Sales Manager Interview

      Apr 29, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      North Haven, CT
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ulta Beauty (North Haven, CT) in Apr 2018

      Interview

      A manager left me a voicemail with a date and time for an interview and requested confirmation. I left a message with an Ulta associate that I would like to schedule the mentioned date and time. I didn't hear back from the manager, so I attempted to call her the following day and again the day after that, which was the morning of the interview. The manager was not at the store or was unavailable both times, so I was unable to confirm that the message I left her about the interview was received. When I arrived on time for the interview, the manager was in another interview for around fifteen minutes, so I waited in the salon. The interview was conducted in a typical small, messy, and unorganized backroom office. The manager began the interview by reading questions off some stapled papers. Theses are given to managers from corporate to give them ideas of what to ask and should not be read verbatim and without context. I figured my resume was read before scheduling the interview, but the manager was unprepared and asked questions about where I'm employed, what I do there, where else I've worked, and how many individuals I've supervised. These are all answered on my resume. I answered each question, and the interviewer argued almost every answer I gave. The interviewer was unreasonable and trying hard to be assertive and controlling, but it just came off as angry, ignorant, and contrarian. Only a few minutes into the interview, I realized I didn't want to work with this person, who needs to be trained in interviewing; assessing and recruiting talent; and, from the sound of things, managing people. It should be noted that I far exceeded the work experience and education requirements and preferences listed in the ad for this position, and I fully understand what this company sells and to whom it mainly sells goods and services. The manager seemed to have a problem interviewing someone he or she thought hadn't used any goods or services in the store, and suggested I was lying about using products sold there because of my sex, gender, or appearance.
