I applied online and was called about two weeks later. The entire process from the first interview to my start date was a little less than three weeks. The interview was three parts: in-office questions, a makeup application demo, and a follow up interview. The first and last parts were with the store director, the technical interview was with the Beauty Studio Captain. All three parts were quick and comfortable, one-on-one (which I hear is rare), and I left feeling confident in my work. However, I was not hired into the position I applied for, even though I wanted full time, had completely open availability, and most importantly, the knowledge and experience for the job. I was instead hired as a part time cashier. I was later told that I was hired as a cashier "because we just really needed one". My advice to those going in to interview at Sephora are to be upbeat and positive, but stand your ground and do not settle for a job you know you are over-qualified for.
