It was a good interview overall. I didn't get the job, but the manager was nice and really worked with me on any problems I had finishing the interview. It was tough and I found it hard, but I managed to complete it and got some really helpful feedback from the manager for my next interviews.

It was a really chill interview, pretty standard questions, and even though I wasn't prepped, I did alright. The person interviewing me was super nice. We met up, sorted out some paperwork like getting my uniform size and checking my ID, and they got back to me the next day.
