For me it was a friendly experience and not overwhelming despite the management position. The lady seemed to genuinely just want to get to know me. It was relatively informal which meant I felt working there would also be a friendly environment.

Interview
Interview went smoothly. I actually thought it went well but I didn’t get the job so I guess it didn’t 😂 What I didn’t like about it was the ignorance of staff there. There was no urgency to update me on whether I was successful or not. I had to chase them three times after a week had passed to get an answer and the interviewer ignored two of my emails. I just think it’s very rude,
