Very casual and easy interview process. There was a survey to fill out that was focused on theft, drugs, alcohol, violence and fighting. The survey had some very shocking questions. But the manager said they don't necessarily have issues, it was just an old survey the owner created.
very easy and straight-forward, very simple interview it is all about how you answer as opposed to what your answers are. hold and carry yourself the right way and you will certainly get it.
