      Store Director Interview

      4 May 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora

      Interview

      I was contacted by the regional recruiter through a job website. We had a great discussion and believed it went very well. I was excited for the opportunity. I took the time and money to book an appointment with a Beauty Advisor. Again, another great experience. Next was an interview with the DM. She showed up late and was very distracted throughout the interview. It made me uncomfortable and seemed like she wasn't interested. I received a message saying the position had been filled.. for the next month the job was still posted. I asked for feedback and never received any reply, from the recruiter or the DM. I was very disappointed. There are a number of people who I've worked for in the past that are currently employed by Sephora. I have a great respect for them and they never returned my calls or emails. I'm a very positive person and rarely write negivtive reviews, but I felt I should make persons aware of my experience so they are prepared before interviewing with Sephora.

      Store Director Interview

      29 Oct 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Sephora (Toronto, ON)

      Interview

      FIrst was interviewed on the phone by a recuriter, and it was very quick. Unlike previous times, which were lengthy and even one where I had to click a link to answer interview questions on a video to AI, this one was just a few fast questions. I then had a full video interview with a district manager. It was very friendly and casual. I responded to everything confidently and the only thing I was a little iffy on was when I was told you only get 1 out of every 4 weekends off. I think my response to that, probably cost me from moving forward.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sephora

      Interview

      The interviewing process was lengthy. I met with multiple store directors, district managers and ultimately the regional director. I felt like this gave me great exposure to the company and the position for which I was hiring.
