Behavioral Technical Presentation
It was a pretty standard interview, but they did include a shop floor trial. We talked about a lot of scenarios and tied them back to my actual experiences. Usually, it's just one-on-one, you and the interviewer. Honestly, it was a pretty chill and fun experience. It would help if you researched the brand beforehand and knew their products since they'll ask you questions and expect you to show how they work.

It wasn't a super formal interview, more like a quick chat over the phone with a few questions to see if I'd be a good fit for a trial shift - it felt pretty laid-back! The person I spoke with was really nice. It basically felt like a pre-screening to be honest.
