The interview process was really fast. We mostly talked about my past work experience and my availability for different shifts, like late nights and mornings, and how flexible I am. They also asked how I'd deal with customer service.

So I went for an interview at Walkabout Glasgow and it turned out the interviewer didn't even have my CV. It wasn't her fault at all, it was pretty clear management just dumped the task on her without prepping her. This immediately put me in a tough spot, and I felt like they weren't taking me seriously. I'd actually put in the effort to customize my application and get ready for the role, so it was a real bummer to be met with such chaos. To make things even worse, I got a standard rejection email later with zero feedback, even though the interview itself wasn't even fair from the start. It just left me feeling brushed off and deflated. If this is how Walkabout treats potential hires, it doesn't say much about how they treat people in general.

Presentation Behavioral

Had a recruiter call first, then got a task to do a 30-min presentation. They send you brand guidelines and stuff, and you have to create a marketing plan for an event and then present it. The interview itself is an hour long. The people were nice and seemed interested, but it's a lot of work to do for a job interview when you're already working full-time. They said they'd call me either way. Got an email two weeks later that seemed like it was for someone at the very beginning of the process. It was really blunt, almost rude, and just a total waste of my time.

I was interviewed in the customer area at Yates York, which lacked privacy and had people walking around and listening, making it an uncomfortable setting. The interviewer seemed very disinterested. I was told I'd get an answer in 2 days, but after 9 days, I called and after receiving a lot of incorrect information about when the person would be in, I was informed they'd given the job to someone more experienced, despite the advertisement stating no experience was necessary.
