Happy New Year!
I had applied online for a position at the Clarins counter at Macy's a few days ago. I've never used Clarins so I went down to Macy's to see what they have. I had mentioned to the associate (she was actually the Arden counter manager) that I had applied online and she got really excited for some reason (maybe cause she has had to work extra hours until they hire someone). Anyhow, she gave me the cosmetic manager's number and told me to call her and follow up, which I did and left her a message.
While I was talking to the associate, I asked her about what kind of training she got. She said that each line has their own traininig at certain times of the year. She said that until then, you just read boxes and figure it out??? Is that the norm for Macy's? I asked her if they at least did training when it came to makeovers and she said no?? She made the comment that my makeup was pretty and that I wouldn't have a problem. It's a lot different putting on your own makeup than on someone else. I was just curious if this is how Macy's did their "training" for beauty advisors.
Thanks,
Tara
