Firstly I was shown into a room with the other interviewees and asked to fill out a standard form name, uniform size etc and then we were told we would be the second group to go in. We went into another room about 6 of us and we had a scenario and bullet points to answer on flip chart paper. Two staff members were observing us and said we had 15 mins to answer all the questions as a group and present it at the end with our flipchart. The questions were quite simple e.g. healthy and safety, how to make a space more presentable, teamwork. That part was easy just make sure you input something for each point and work well with the group to show you're a team player. After we went back to the other room and waited to have our individual interviews. I got on really well with the lady who interviewed me, she was really friendly, so I was put at ease and we were able to have a casual chat. She asked me "tell me about yourself' "what hobbies do you do outside of work" " what is your greatest achievement" "why do you want to work at Waitress" then there were 4 main job questions "what opportunities and challenges do you think you will face doing a night shift" "explain a time when you had to change your approach, tell me why and what the outcome was" "explain a time when you had to challenge another person on your team, why and what was the outcome" and I can't remember the other one. We then went through my form and I asked any questions I had. I got an offer email a week later.

They asked some basic questions; it was a very friendly atmosphere; the recruitment process is very straightforward; I think it takes no more than two weeks. First a telephone interview, then an interview with the managers
