The interview process was pretty straightforward. I did an in-person interview at a store first, and then I had a phone interview later. They were quick and to the point, and they answered all my questions.

It was pretty laid back. They asked basic customer service questions, like how to deal with tough situations and what good customer service means to me. We also talked about my availability and pay expectations. They were interested in my resume and if I had experience in the hair industry.

I applied on Jan 25 and heard back Feb 1 to set up an interview on Feb 3. When I got there, everyone was really nice. The district manager and another manager were there and asked me some questions. Then the store manager took me to the back and interviewed me. She was really nice too. After the interview, she asked if I had any questions. She said she was 'for sure for sure' going to call me. I was the second person she interviewed. Crossing my fingers and praying she calls! I've always wanted to work at Cosmoprof. Thanks to the store managers for the chance to interview and talk with me.

The manager seemed really interested in me for the Sales Associate role. The interview was about an hour long. She spent most of the time telling me how tough the retail job is and all the physical labor involved. I told her I could handle what she expected. Then she said I was spoiled at my last job, which I don't understand since I worked hard there for years. It was quite rude. She said she'd call me back in a few days, but I didn't hear back for over a week, and by then they had already given the job to someone else.
