As far as I know they said we are only going to be a counter of 5 because there is already a MAC across the mall from us in Macys. So they want to see how sales are going to be if it goes great then they plan on hiring more people. I think our Grand Opening date is set for the 25th but I could be wrong. This is the 3rd time it has been changed. Once it opens I will let you know so you can come drop off your resume.

Ya i see...I was thinking of applying at Macys too, but I thought since the bloomys one is new they might need more employees..But thanks for letting me know

Re: Mac Basic Training

Be sure to work for a counter that is MAC-Owned.
When you work directly for a retailer(i.e. Macy's, Nordstrom), it isn't quite as fun.

OMG, Basic Training looks awesome, I seriously always wanted to work at MAC. I wish MAC did basic training for the general public, like how to do different looks and such.

Re: Mac Basic Training

This sounds so great!

I just got hired! I went to an interview a few months ago, but I didn't get the job. I know the girls at the counter in our city and they know how much I love MAC and that I'm good with make-up so they thought of me for a Saturday position. So I guess my question is... Do I have to go to the basic training if there is any one booked soon?
It sounds so great! I would love to!

LOL. Basic Training sounds like you're going to join the army!! It almost makes it sound like a chore, but lets face it I think we'd all kill each other to get on that course!!!

However, heres the thing. I already have a career (not makeup) but would still like to do the basic training in my own time and would happilly pay for it! You think Mac would see the huge potential for heaps of extra cash by offering it as a course!!

Anyway, I have no intention of working for Mac - I had a retail job for what felt like a million years for Woolworths when I was at Uni and I can honestly say, I've never had a more shit job! I hate customers! lol - with a passion. I have no patience for a job like that regardless of who its for.

Anyway, that turned into a bit of a rant (apologises profusely!).

Oh my God!

I just went from a Saturday position to a full time position! I'm full time right now and in March I will be 75%. I'm so happy!

Anyway... I think that we'll have basic in March too so I guess I'll go to that one. Sure hope so! Does anyone know how we're going to do with the brushes? Should I bring my brush belt from work?
