applying at mac again

[kimmy]

so, the last time i got an offer from mac i opted not take it for some ungodly reason. for some reason, i thought this job i have at a grocery store was where it's at and wasn't worth leaving for mac. hmm..no. i've learned the truth now.

i'm gonna go back in and apply again. and i'm planning out my makeup because i know it's going to have to be brilliant for them to give me another chance. last time i didn't wear false lashes, and i know this is a dumb question...but should i wear falsies this time? and, last time they offered me something, i was wearing all black like the artists, should i go wearing all black again? i'm not sure if my outfit had anything to do with the offer...but if it did, i definately want to repeat that.

Wear false lashes. You don't need to everyday but it's good to show them that you can actually apply lashes by wearing them yourself. I never used to wear lashes but now I wear them pretty much ALL the time to work cuz it's just so much more fun haha.

Wear all black of course but make sure you're dressed "trendy" that's a big thing. I personally save a huge majority of my paycheck so I usually only give myself a $400 a month expense. On that budget ... and with the past pace fashion scene ... I shop at Forever 21 and Wet Seal. It's cheap so it works, I don't care if it's not AMAZING quality because in a month something new will be in anyway haha.

Just walk in there each time (handing in ur resume, first interview, demo) looking like you already work at MAC. They want you to dress for the part that you want.

Definitely wear trendy all black & if you're looking to make an impression, falsies would definitely be a positive....I dunno how your region is, but mine always likes contrasting accents (like, I do a winged out top & bottom liner w/ a white accent inbetween the 2 lines a lot...if that makes sense, or a crazy colored bottom liner or something)...I dunno, just giving you fuel, you know? hehehe

amoona, forever 21 is one of my favourite places in the entire world just because it's so effing cheap haha! i think i'm gonna wear kind of a geek chic thng this time, all black...that's how most of the girls at my counter dress so i'm hoping that will impress them. most of them are college students who are studying some kind of business profession, so they dress in cute little pencil skirts and sweaters with some nice shoes.

thank you both for your advice.

i'm gonna go in on wednesday so i'm hoping i can get another offer.
