Do you have an eye for fashion? Do you think that Hollywood stylists have all the fun? Would you like to get in on the action and make money too? Well, keep reading because Stitch Fix might have something in store for you.
Stitch Fix is hiring stylists who live in or near Austin, Cleveland, Dallas, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Sacramento, San Diego, and the San Francisco Bay areas.
What Exactly is Stitch Fix?
Stitch Fix is a monthly clothing subscription box company that is extremely popular with women.
Every month, customers who have signed up for Stitch Fix receive curated, hand-picked boxes of new clothing from name brands, all of which are based on the customers' taste, style, size, budget, and lifestyle. It's a great, fun service and the company is growing by the day!
How Does Stitch Fix Work?
After the customer signs up with a profile, one of the professional stylists will go to work and ship out five clothing items to the address provided by the customer.
The customers get to try on the items in the comfort of their own homes and send back what they don't like. The customer will only pay for the items they decide to keep.
Customers sign up after creating their profiles to the subscription level of their choice. Subscriptions can be for every month, every other month or even every three months.
If the customer buys all five items, then a 25% discount will be given. However, a $20 stylist fee will be applied as credit towards any future orders. The average clothing item is about $55 before any discounts are applied. It's like having your own celebrity stylist!
L.A. Made, Sanctuary, Mystree, and Tart are just some of the brands offered. Currently stylists are only available for women—even pregnant women—however, in the future men might be able to get in on the action.

She is also a PFYP certified career coach and the owner of the blog, Powerfully Purposed For Success. She empowers folks 50-ish to find fun, flexible, and financially rewarding work both now and into retirement. However, this time it will be work/life on their terms.
I was so excited to apply. I went to the site and made a list of everything I needed to get together for my application (it’s midterm week for me at school so it took about 2 days). I went back and the whole page was gone. They’re no longer looking. There wasn’t anything listed on the page that stated applications were only being accepted during a certain time frame. This was incredibly disappointing. I’ve honestly never applied for a job that didn’t have set parameters such as list detailed upfront.
Very interesting. Wish they hired in Atlanta, GA.
Yes, the job is open in a lot more places than it used to, plus it makes sense when you consider the initial level of training involved. That is why I suggested seeing if the job was listed in your state or not or hired there. There appears to be a “crossover” for some of the smaller closer knit states.
Same here! following
This sounds interesting but my state is not listed and probably never will be. I wouldn’t mind going to another state for the training if it’s just one day.
Unfortunately, they require that you live in the same state as the training. I’ve e-mailed them to ask about it, and this was their response:
“Thank you for reaching out to us and for your interest in Stitch Fix! Currently all of our positions are for specific locations in which our employees must be located. Even though the position is a work from home option, we still require weekly check ins with your lead as well as other trainings and meetings that go on in that area. We believe in a wonderful company culture, and want each of our employees to benefit from this!
Let me know if you have any other questions. Keep an eye out on our website for other job postings – we may be coming to your area soon!

Thanks for sharing that. For what it’s worth, the job is open in a lot more places than it used to be when I first started seeing it. So that makes me hopeful they will continue to expand and more people will have the opportunity to do this.
Thank you for sharing.
