There was a group interview with 30-40 people, and we were split into groups of 10. We did icebreakers, the kind you'd do at a much younger age, which wasn't everyone's preference. It felt more like a first day at a new school.

I saw a QR code on a Nando's branch window saying they were hiring. It linked to their careers site where I applied online for a Front of House position. You can filter to see which branches have openings. A manager called me and also sent WhatsApp messages with directions and the trial shift time, which was helpful. The trial shift is 4 hours with a trainer, it's unpaid but you get a staff meal. After that, I interviewed with a manager and completed a paper about fire hazards and safety rules. They offered me the job right away and asked about my availability. Contracts were provided quickly by the managers.

Confirmed questions8 questions
  • Tell me about your availability and when you can work.
  • Can you tell me about your current situation, like if you're a student?
  • What's important to you in a job?
