WHEW! I might have an interview!

[MACGoddess]

I turned in my application and portfolio Friday to one of the head MA's bc the MAC Store manager and asst. manager were off, and I called today to make sure she got it.

She not only remembered my portfolio and had looked at it, but she said that she would be calling me for an interview next week, this week she was trying to get some things wrapped up at the store! YIPEE!

And I know for a fact that three MAs had turned in their 2 weeks notice, so there are at least a few job openings.

yay! That must be really exciting.. How big is your portfolio?

I did makeup on five women of varying ages and races. I also included a letter at the beginning to the MAC Manager explaining who I am and how long have I been a freelance makeup artist outside of the retail industry. Explained how much I love MAC and love their products etc.

All together I think it was about 10 pages.

Good luck! I would love to work at MAC (darn college is getting in the way, being a freshman I can't have a car so any job, lest it be on campus is out of the question).

HOLY SHIT! That is insane! How the hell did you survive that? Snaps to you hun...wtg!

Next semester (my graduating semester) I only have 2 classes. I did that on purpose so that I would have time to work while going to school. That is how I am planning to get my Master's degree as well.

Good luck! What location will that be at? Make sure that you dress in trendy black and have on HOT makeup for the interview! Also, remember to mention what you know about the Viva Glam products, MAC Aids Fund, Back to MAC, Kids Helping Kids cards, their motto, "All Ages, All Sexes, All Races", how important outstanding customer service is to MAC, yadda, yadda, yadda! You'll do great!
