Process went on for over 2 months. The location was told after I applied and it was at JFK airport. The manager (newly from NJ) was really unorganized and unprofessional. She was rude and needed more training on the hiring process.

I was referred to the role by a friend and former colleague. I had a phone screen and was told I could only be interviewed in person at a very specific time for 15 minutes only. I made the time slot happen and the interview went slightly over. The people I met with (experiential marketing) were nice and asked me about my events experience. I felt the conversation went well, and thought while I might be a bit junior for the project, I was ready and excited for the challenge. I did not understand, however, how the role was so part-time considering the immensity of the project. I received a rejection email from the hiring manager who is actually an employee of Randstad. She was unable to offer any feedback. I have had very negative experiences working with Randstad through other corporate companies in the past, and I'm not surprised my communications with them were pretty unhelpful and uninformed this time around, as well.

I had 4 interviews. So I applied online via Estee Lauder for a MAC 3rd Key position. Which required for me to submit my resume and complete an online interview. The online interview was 9 questions that I have about 30 secs to prepare for before it recorded my answer. I had 3 min. to answer each question.

 About 10 days later, I received a call from my local MAC store to complete an in-person interview. During which I was informed I was a strong candidate for the position and was invited onto the next part of the interview: the Technical portion of my interview (MakeUp Demo). I scheduled the interview for two days later.

     The MakeUp Demo for me was unlike the experiences I’ve heard that other people had. I was given 10 min. to pick out supplies and 45 min. to complete my makeup. There was no prompt given- my instruction was to perform what the model wanted which I did. Honestly, this portion of the interview was so fun. There was a theme going on in the store so all of the MAC girls/guys were high energy and gorgeous. There was music playing and my model and I were really enjoying ourselves. Honestly this portion of the interview really made me want the position even more. I’ve read other experience where people said that the MAC girls and guys were rude but literally for me we all hit it off right away. I was shown to a space to complete my Makeup and was shown the MAC standard of hygiene. No one stood over me the entire time but they did walk by periodically to check in and listen in. Honestly this allowed me to be in my tone and to perform the makeup application as a naturally would. Engaging, laughing and teaching my client. It allowed for a much more authentic experience in my opinion and gave me the opportunity to see how it would feel to actually work in the store.

   When I was finish I was even impressed with how the makeup came out. There were no criticisms given. They asked my model what she wanted and if I delivered and she told them she loved it (she wanted something natural that would be day date appropriate.
   After the demo they said they like the Makeup and had no critiques. They liked how I engaged the client and had plenty of tips and tricks to teach.
     I was told I’d have a final interview with another manager on the phone which we set up for 3 days later.
   That interview was more sales and management focused and they really brought the heat. I was told that I’d be notified within the week if I’d gotten the job. Three days later I heard back!

Overall, I did ALOT of research and preparation for this interview. Though the process was difficult, I was very confident because I was very prepared which made certain aspects of the interview less stressful.

I applied online and instantly got a digital interview. I had 5 days to submit my interview. 3 weeks later I got a call asking to come in for both a speaking interview and a makeup application. 2 days after the call I came in with my model which I was required to bring for my interview. The interview seemed to have gone really well and I was told I’d receive a call the upcoming Monday. Today is that Monday and I never received a call. I will wait a couple days and then will call if I don’t here anything.

Update: a couple days after I hadn’t gotten any call, I had gotten a call from the manager I had done my interview with. She had appologized for getting back to me later than expected due to being really busy at the store and had offered me a job!

There is a makeup test and sit-down interview. Prospective artists are asked to bring a model and given the full range of products to demonstrate skill and efficiency. Often artists are told to switch models ensuring you are working on a new face. Emphasis on timing and makeup knowledge rather than product knowledge.

For a MAC Freelance position; group interview. First they had us answer questions in a group then after that they made us bring our own model and apply makeup on the model. After, they review how well you placed makeup on the model.

I applied in early January. I did the virtual interview which was super easy. Then I got a call back about 2 weeks after applying. I had to go in and do makeup on a model which was so easy and fun. The girls where very nice and supportive. I waited a week and I had a 2nd interview over the phone with a different manager. They just want to see how good your makeup skills are you have to really have a passion and ne excited to work with clients. Thankfully I got the job. Just waiting on the next step!
