I applied online and didn’t hear back for a while, but after a few weeks got a call. I think they must’ve had a few potential candidates fall through as there was no group interview, just an in person chat with the manager. It was very chill and friendly, and it felt like I was being listened to. I had been unemployed for a while and stated this when answering a question, whereas usually I would skirt about and find a way around it. I think being honest helped me, and I was able to connect more with the person who interviewed me. I was told lots about the job and what the role would entail, and uniform standards. I was also told that my answer to a particular question was very good, which was nice to hear and gave me confidence during the interview when normally I’d be quite nervous. I heard back 4 days after the interview that I had got the job :)

Informal but with some set questions, including work experience in hospitality, what qualities you have, and what your friends would describe you as. The interviewer was friendly and gave time for you to ask you own questions.
