I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Five Guys (London, England) in Jul 2014
Interview
My recent applications have taught me how badly companies treat job seekers. I applied for a position there and never heard back from them. So I followed up and got an email from a hiring manager. He wanted to schedule an interview. He was extremely slow on responding to any communications. Finally we met and had a conversation. It was laid back and easy and he wanted to get me on board. He told me that he would call me the following day but he never did. I sent a thank you email for the interview but did not hear anything for days. Finally, he emailed me stating the he wanted to talk to the senior hiring manager and would get back to me the following day. He did not get back to me. I sent another email and he responded that he would call me the following day but never did. A day later I got an email that things where on a back burner for now and that he wanted to bring me on at a later date. I declined to any further communications with that company. If you treat a job seeker like that, how are they treating their employees?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You have an accent where are from? I found that to be rude.
Good interview lasted 45 minutes just a bunch of questions about who you are and how well you think you will do. They want to get to know you as much as possible so be prepared for lots of questions
