So am freelancing from 3 years have and have applied to both MAC and Sephora but no luck. I want to apply to sephora again what are some advise or tips to get hired? I used to work as a beauty advisor before so I have retail experience.

Usually they want people with experience in the makeup industry, or have been to beauty school considering people actually make appointments at both of those stores to specifically come in and get their makeup done. They try to hire people with the most experience, not just because you love makeup! So maybe if possible, you could gain experience to add to your resume, you would have better luck :)

Thanks for the comment. I actually had a friend work for sephora before and she never applied any makeup and never had makeup knowledge either but got hired and only worked for 1 yr with them before joining another place.

You might want to try working at a Clinique counter, or maybe Lancome to build experience before applying to Sephora or MAC they are much less strict.
