It was a good experience overall. The process was clear and concise, and they showed good product knowledge. I am hoping to hear back for the final rounds. Working at Tim Hortons, a popular Canadian coffee and fast-food chain, offers a fast-paced environment with opportunities to develop customer service and teamwork skills.

Behavioral Case Presentation
So, for this Sales Assistant job, first I had a phone call where we talked about my background and why I'm interested in sales. Then, I went in person to meet the hiring manager. We talked a lot about my customer service abilities and any sales experience I've had before. After that, they had me do a role-play, like a mock sales situation, to see how I'd talk to customers and close a deal. We finished up by chatting about what it's like to work there and what they expect from people.

It was a really easy and quick interview process, everything was done on time. They asked a lot of questions about whether I could stand for eight hours, lift heavy things, interact with people, and about my availability for morning, afternoon, or night shifts, including opening and closing shifts. They also asked if I knew how to make coffee and how to make sales.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Are you able to stand for an eight-hour shift?
