MAC cosmetics
 

does/has anyone work for MAC? I love thier makeup and wondered about working there. if you have, what kind of experience do you need? what kind of things do you do? one of my friends had an "interview" with them and i was her "model" and she did my makeup in front of them. but that's all i know

I havent worked for MAC but my friend just had an interview with them and I live in nor cal...San Francisco area...thats funny

One of my friends applied to work at MAC and from what she told me, you have to have some sort of experience more than doing makeup on friends/relatives. Usually, if you've worked in the same dept. store you can get promoted and keep changing to the more desirable counters. My friend has a considerable amount of experience and a portfolio and she was told that she may be able to do some freelance stuff for them, she wasn't even offered a job! I would recommend getting a job at a smaller counter first in a store that sells MAC and work your way up. It sounds like it would take a long time, but unless you are professionally trained you may have a difficult time being hired! Hope this helps-good luck!

My future roommate worked for MAC in the Mall of America & although she said it was very competitive she really enjoyed it! When she came back to KY though she couldn't even get a job @ the MAC counter here!
