For my update....I didn't get it but she said I have very good potential and I can just email her (the recruiter) back when I feel ready to try again. I was thinking about waiting until the mac seminar that they are going to have to soon but I'm thinking that might be too late.

Well I had a lot of fun at the interview but I knew in my heart I really wasn't ready. I thought I wouldn't get an interview for like another month or so but it happened in like a week lol. I know what they are looking for now so I think I have an advantage ya know. I'm trying to think of it in a positive way lol. Everyone else I know is mad but I'm not I'm actually ok lol.

Sure! I thought it was fun either way. Ya I was alil upset but I had a good expierence. Anyways it started with verbal interview and I was feeling pretty confident about it because I had nailed macy's group interview(it took 3 tries before I actually got it) so it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. What got me was the sales question but after she explaine aus and sph i got it so well all talked about why they important etc. She then asked our favorite poduct and I went 1st. I told her my favorite product of the week was fix+ then she told me to sell it. then i said well fix+ and 187 so then i told her about the ways to use the 187 and the benefits of fix+ and why i like them together which was if your not very good at spraying yourself(im not lol) then you can stipple it on with the brush. after the interview she told me theat's when I had her lol. the after verbal the models came in in not much to my surpise we were switched. i got a really nice lady with feature i don't normally work with. but i tried and it looked alright but i dont think it followed the scenerio too much. the scenerio was that our models were (insert famous red carpet people) and after the show they were flying out to (insert exotic location) and they had to recreate that look there. so it had to be a simple glamour look. we were given 5 min to collect stuff and 25 min to complete the look. i was thinking about golden bronzy look with red lips. i got the bronzy look but i couldnt find red lip anything. he had called out 3 min and i couldnt find anything so i just grabed random colors and much to my surpised it matched and according to the recruiter that was my best part. so i think i should just practiced looks from like magazines. the recruiter seemed to really like me but idk if that is how she acts with everyine. i'm not going to give up though. i'll try again. the only people that were hired was a guy and a girl who has worked there before. i was surprised when some of the other girls didn't get it because i thought they were good. I think im going to wait until after the mac seminar to try again!


sorry for misspelling
