We had two interviews, one with management and keepers, and then another split between management and keepers too. The first was pretty basic, but the second one delved into my past experiences, hypothetical situations, and other job-related aspects.

The interview lasted for an hour and I answered about 25 questions, some of which seemed like repeats. Afterwards, they didn't say anything about when I would hear back.

You'll have a group interview with 2 people, and there will probably be 2-3 people being interviewed including yourself. They're going to have you talk about yourself and go over basic info like your availability, experience, and what you would do in certain situations. Then they'll ask questions, and whoever they choose to answer first will answer. They really like enthusiasm throughout the process. One thing to do is pay attention to all the questions because if you're not answering first, the person answering might go off-topic or something, making you forget the questions asked and taking you off track too. They won't repeat the question. My interviewer kept half-answering the question, which almost got me if I hadn't been paying closer attention to the questions being asked.

The interview process I went through was really smooth and easy to follow. I already knew the interviewers from working in attractions beforehand, so I had a strong customer service and operations background. They were professional yet approachable and kept me informed throughout. It felt very organized and straightforward, making the whole experience positive.
