I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Charles Penzone (Columbus, OH) in Jan 2012
Interview
Phone interview then group interview. A little intense with all different personalities in the room answering questions. Then went on to do a hands on with mannequin to show yours skills
It was fine. Went in, handed over my resume, I was asked some questions, I was given a lengthy tour of the entire salon, I met and spoke with several people.
