I had an open interview, then a stage, and was offered the job. I mentioned I was interviewing elsewhere and asked for time. After four days, I called back but couldn't reach the chef. Over the next week, I got excuses for why the chef wasn't available. On the last call, I was told I'd get onboarding paperwork that day, but I never did. The chef or anyone else never contacted me back. I canceled other interviews because I wanted to work for Scrap Kitchen. If a company rescinds an offer or moves on, basic courtesy is expected; the lack of it is a red flag. Dodged a bullet, but the experience left a bad taste, so I probably won't dine at Fox restaurants again.

The interview was professional. The interviewer was very polite. I didn't get the job, but it was a professional interview nonetheless.

The interview was very short, under 2 minutes. It felt like a speed dating situation, and it was clear I wasn't a fit for them. Just a heads up to not expect much. I can't comment on working for the company because it felt extremely disrespectful, like my time and attention didn't matter. To me, that reflects poorly on a company. Best of luck!
