They're so desperate, they'll push your through fast. They'll possibly drug test you on the spot. Be ready for that. The interview wasn't that long. They hire from all backgrounds. Even entry level fast food managers.

It was a pretty chill process. I met with the department supervisor and we just chatted about my strengths and weaknesses, and what I thought I could contribute. We also talked about whether I work well in a team. The supervisor was really nice and made me feel totally at ease. They answered all my questions without any hesitation and gave really thorough answers.
