What products would you recommend for someone with dry skin vs oily?
After a phone scheduling, I was quickly called into office to be interviewed by an HR and beauty manager. Took about 2 weeks after application. Typical questions off a paper questionnaire, nothing difficult

Question 1
“Tell me something about you that’s not on your resume”
I applied online. I interviewed at JCPenney (Houston, TX)
Interview
The interview was smooth and professional. They asked me about my past retail experience, how I describe myself and my knowledge in the beauty industry. They will give me a phone call soon for the offer.
They first sat me down and guaged my availability. Then we spoke about what my strengths were and they asked me how my status as a student could hinder my schedule. They were very nice and very accommodating.
