Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Sephora.
Project Manager
The whole thing took 4 months from applying to me being ghosted. I had 4 interviews, from a recruiter up to a VP. The VP said I'd hear back and that TA would update me, but after chasing them 3 times, I got no response or update. I went from thinking Sephora Canada was great to thinking it's terrible because of this. They clearly don't respect candidates or their time.
- Can you share your experience that's relevant to this position?
- What are your motivators?
- What are things that demotivate you?
Project Assistant
First, an interview with HR, then an interview with the two managers. The job was explained, and many questions were asked about the company's knowledge. Questions about motivation and a case study on number analysis.
- Why Sephora?
- What are Sephora's strengths compared to its competitors?
Project Manager
Had a phone screen with HR which went great. Got picked to move on to interview with the hiring manager. But then, less than an hour before the Zoom call, I got an email saying they had to cancel because something came up. The HR recruiter told me she'd get in touch by the end of the week to reschedule. Never heard from her, so I followed up on Friday afternoon. Got a generic rejection email right after. The recruiter couldn't even bother to email me back to explain what happened.
- Tell me about your motivations for joining our company.
- What are your reasons for seeking a new opportunity away from your current role?
