Accepted Offer – Interviewed in South Tucson, AZ – Reviewed May 17, 2013 New
Interview Details – I already had a friend working at the Supercuts. We meet when we were in beauty school together. We both were on the Supercuts scholarship. They pay for your school tuition (not the extras) and you work for them for two years. Once I got my cosmetology licence I called the manager and asked if they were hiring. I came in the next week for an interview. They asked if I had my license and all my tools. Asked if I lived around there and if I could get to work on time. At the end the manager asked about availability and when I could start. They sent me to the training academy for a week.

Interview Details – In my perspective it was easier for i had networked with the area supervisor prior to finishing beauty school. Although first you go through an initial interview with the salon manager then if you are approved it is then passed on to get interviewed by the area supervisor, if you are accepted to be a part of the company you are then submitted to go to HSA(hairstylist academy) where then you will learn how to cut the supercuts way. Then after you pass the training with a 75% or higher you are on a 3month probation to be kept or let go, it is based off of your performance and speed(which I find lame) but if you pass your probation then you take a haircoloring class then you are finally a set employee of the company.

Interview Details – The owner and office manager conducted the interview. The questions were not to difficult - strengths, weaknesses, future plans.

Interview Details –
They basically want to see your positive person and able to speak with many people.
Depending on the franchise, they want to know your strengths and weaknesses and will ask for a technical interview. They are willing to work on your schedule on if you have restrictions or just want to make some up to avoid working certain times of the day ...do it THEN not later. Example your not a morning person or like to have you afternoons free... make something up...the difference between a 9-3 shift and a 1-7 or 3-9 shift on the weekends will indeed matter to you eventually...
