Interviewed Apr 2012 in Wellington, FL (took 2 weeks)
Let me start by saying that even though i applied to be a prestige consultant, i am now a hairstylist at Ulta. I filled out the app at ulta.com for a fulltime prestige consultant. I was called back about a week and a half later by a manager to attend a group interview and to wear all black (dress code) and a full face of makeup. I arrived the next day and i was to be interviewed wit about 5 other girls. we were kept waiting for about 10 minutes and were brought to the back to conduct the interview. We were only ask 3 questions: Why Ulta, what was our favorite makeup product, and why would we be a good fit for Ulta. I was less than impressed with the interview but whatever. I was called back 2 days later and was told they thought i would be a good fit. I didnt live in the area yet so a week later when i moved, i went to meet with the manager that called me. he told me they were NOT hiring for full time and suggested i work in the salon since i am a licensed stylist and a makeup artist. side note: if anyone applys at ulta thinking their going to be doing full faces of makeup everyday, they are sadly mistaken. only the salon does full faces. at my location anyway. the consultants mostly do color matcing and stuff. lame. theyre really strict about stealing. you have to have a manager check you out if you buy something, check your CLEAR bag when you keave (they make you carry a clear bag) and anything that youd bring to work (cosmetic wise) needs to have a green mark on it that a manager has to make because if they catch you with something that isnt green dotted, they will fire you on the spot. when i went in and spoke to the salon manager, she was very nice and explain everything to me. in my area stlist start at 43% or $8, whatever is greater. there are opportunities to advance and when you do your commission goes up. and it isnt hard to advance. I had to bring in a model and do highlights, cut, and style and she immediately hired me. It was a long annoying process and there was a minor lack of communication but not as bad as everyone makes me seem. we'll see how it goes...

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Owensboro, KY (took a day)
I am currently halfway through the interveiw process. I had my first interview on Friday and was offered a second interview at the end of that interview. I wouldn't say I really had an interview because it lasted all of 5 minutes. I was actually confused when she said I would have my second interview then reached for my hand as to say goodbye. This interview is for a brand new store opening, so I am unsure if they are just trying to hire as many people as they can..So I expect to have a much longer, more intense interview tomorrow.
