Behavioral Technical Other

The interview started off with a bad vibe in the waiting room where one of the owners was being really aggressive and talking down about someone else. Then, I went upstairs for the interview and discovered that three people would be interviewing me, and two of them left partway through, which wasn't mentioned beforehand. It was chaotic; one person would ask a question, and before I could finish answering, another would jump in with a different question. They also asked for multiple copies of my resume. They asked me to rate my latte art. When I mentioned I didn't have my food handler's card but was willing to get one, one of them said condescendingly, 'it's not an option, it's a requirement.' This contradicted what was advertised on Craigslist, which said it was okay if you were still learning latte art and that getting a food handler's card was required or could be obtained after employment, showing disorganization. The lady interviewing me was nice, but I can confirm from others that the owners seemed rude and difficult, so I'm actually glad they didn't call me back.

The interview happened during a busy workday. The manager decides the interview type. There are some wild people in the city. The interview was about me, my background in food, and my health. If they like me, they offer a 3-day trial period.
