I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Blow Dry Bar (New York, NY) in Dec 2014
Interview
Terrible they communicate from California headquarters they obviously don't have good communication with new York stores because I was called invited to interview when I arrived I was told that Carrington the interviewer was off that day n they had sent their front desk person home for the day so no one could interview me. Then I received an email stating I wasn't fit for the job which I was never interviewed for in the first place so disgusted because despite the bad reviews I still tried them out so you know what day bar up yours
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Blow Dry Bar in Oct 2013
Interview
This was a group interview with a lot of interviewees. We were split into two groups of about 17 people each. First part required us to partner up with another interviewee and introduce ourselves to each other, and in turn, introduce our partner to the group. Part two required us to get into groups of four, which were chosen at random, and make a sixty second commercial about Dry Bar. Hard if you don't think quickly on your feet. Part three, the group of 17 was split in half again and given either a scrunchie or a hair clip and told to sell it to the entire group as anything you want. After all this, we were taken upstairs and asked typical interview questions.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Blow Dry Bar (Houston, TX) in Jan 2011
Interview
Emails from the owner were a little sporadic and sloppy. She really needs to learn how to spell check before hitting send.
The interview was fairly standard. Performed a basic wash, blowout, and updo on a model that the owner and manager provided. I was then taken into the office for a basic owner/employee interview. Standard questions were asked about my work history, why I left my previous job, etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No unexpected questions. We pretty much discussed my work history and she explained what to expect with working with the company.
