I'm not sure if anyone checks this anymore. I've done some makeup work off and on for the past 20 years, but just started getting back into it seriously. I did some work for a few companies and I had three of them write letters of recommendation. I ran out of business cards as a bride took them. I sent a cover letter explaining that. They have three letters, which is one more than they required, but I was mental about not having given them a card. So I sent an e-mail and got, wait...you can guess...NO REPLY!
I realized today that I had not given them the new expiration date on my card. I spoke with Stacy at CS to give them a heads up. I think that I can best sum Stacy's attitude up with a visual:
. She told me that it takes 5 weeks to be approved or hear back from them. I asked if they'd just reject me out of hand and she said yes. I don't think that I can go on with MAC if they refuse this. I don't have "special circumstances," and so I can't fax anything. I think that I have done everything correctly. They don't require a business card and 3 businesses have written confirmable letters of recommendation. I hate to walk away as every bride and photographer wants MAC. Can anyone give me advice? Could they just ask for more proof and not refuse the application? Should I ask why it says 3 weeks on the site and Stacy said 5? Is there any point in contacting CS? Thanks in advance. Also, thanks to whoever put the
on this site. If you're talking MAC, it's invaluable!
