The interview went well, and I was told someone would follow up with me regarding an on-site second interview later that afternoon. I did not hear back that afternoon and was completely ghosted for 2 weeks despite checking in twice via email. I finally did get a call at the end of the second week from the original interviewer asking, again, about my availability for a second interview but no response to my emails. Needless to say, I moved on to another opportunity.

It was a really professional interview with The FD, Connor Francis and the Chef, Pernell. They asked me a lot of questions about all my past work experience, like which companies I'd worked for, and if I knew how to cook, and if I had experience with both hot and cold food.

the interview was very pleasant, one of my more enjoyable interviews. i wasn't uncomfortable or uneasy. the reps from HR were very personable and friendly people. they didn't ask the usual interview 101 questions, kind of made me feel more as a person rather than just a body for a position.

- Tell me about your passion for coffee.
