      Driver (Aka Valeter/Damage Checker!) Interview

      Apr 14, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Avis Budget Group in Mar 2017

      Interview

      Online application form followed by online video interview. Video interview was a nightmare. You get 15 seconds to prepare for each answer and then 90 seconds to answer. You are told to answer with your best smile! There's a very visible countdown clock - Countdown Quiz style - as you are recording the answer and it just eats into your concentration. You only get one chance to record each answer with no re-dos. This was far more stressful than a face-to-face interview! Also, as the questions went along, I had the sneaking suspicion that there was going to be considerably more valeting and damage checking, rather than just driving in the role than the initial advert had suggested! You get told to present yourself as for a real interview, so I put on a formal shirt and tie. You get to look at your recorded answers later and I now regret that decision; I look like a complete doofus. Also, the amount of stammering and stumbling over my words, plus the number of facial tics I had did not reflect my normal presentation in real life. Never again!

      1 Answer

      Question 2

      You will be required to carry out valeting and damage checks when customers return cars to store. How would you feel about having this variety in your role?
      1 Answer

      Question 3

      If you were in a store and saw a customer who was clearly distressed about having to queue after already making a long journey that day what would you do to rectify the situation?
