I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Sephora (New York, NY) in Feb 2012
Interview
I had an interview 2 times at corporate. The first time i didnt get a call back. I kept trying for a year and got another opportunity to interview again and the first 2 interviews were group interviews. Right after the second interview i met with mangement from the location i was interested in working. They asked for me to do a full face on stage with my model and was told later that I was the only 1 at that time asked to do makeup application for a interview. That was in 2009.
Pretty standard interview. A lot of the questions emphasized selling to the customer so focus on that. If they ask what your favourite product is, don’t just say what it is. Try to sell it to the interviewer.

Interview
10 minute call over the phone, asked maybe around 10 ish common interview questions. Relatively easiy interview process and then they ask about availability, right to work, etc. at the end.
During the group interview process, all participants were asked the same set of structured questions. These included questions about industry knowledge, customer service skills, and several realistic scenario-based problem-solving situations.
