So to make a long story short...I went today to drop off my app and business card along with my letter of reference and the girl at the store told me they couldnt accept it.
I just got my first job working as a makeup artist in a small hair salon and I was so excited to get my pro card. The girl at the Mac store said my letter needed to have a RAISED letterhead. My boss prints all of his business stuff up on a computer...even his own business cards. He typed the letter for me and even included his number. I felt like the salesperson thought I was a scammer and I certainly can't ask my boss to go have stationary professionally printed for this.
I called Mac Pro and they said it was up to their discretion. I mean, do they expect someone to get their first makeup artist job at a high end salon right off the bat??? We have to start somewhere and I am very happy at this little salon. I don't have composite cards, editorial pages or any of the other things listed. What do I do?
