Question 1
What experience do you have working in a team environment?
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at McDonald's (London, England) in May 2015
Interview
Applied online, filled in my personal details (education, employment, contact details etc...) and did a scenario questionnaire and personality questionnaire! This was on 14th May and I got an email 2 hours later to book an interview and an OJE (on job evaluation). I was surprised for the quick response and I booked my interview for 18th May which was today. I wore smart clothing (black trousers and a light blue button down blouse with closed black flat shoes). Reached 15 minutes earlier for the interview and asked an employee that I had an interview and was told to wait for the manager. The manager took me to a room and we introduced ourselves. He asked me questions and asked to see my passport and national insurance card. Then he made me do the on job evaluation, I was told to go on the till, an employee showed me what to do and how to use the till and first did some orders herself and then made me take some orders aswell. She showed me how to use some machines (drinks, ice cream etc...). It was very busy at the time I had my interview so she helped me quite a bit. Then the manager took me back in the room and told me I got the job and asked about my availability and if I can attend the induction. Overall the process was very quick, the question interview took about 5 minutes and the on job evaluation took about 30 minutes.
In-person interview at the store location after completing the online video assessment. The process was straightforward and not very difficult. The interviewer asked basic questions about availability, previous experience, teamwork, customer service, and how I would handle busy shifts or difficult customers.
