I applied through other source. I interviewed at Tim Hortons (Sault Ste. Marie, ON) in Nov 2015
Interview
I got the interview by attending a job fair for a new Tims. You bring your resume and wait for a turn to be interviewed by a recruiter. If you're thought to be a good fit, you'd pass the first interview- which was more like a screening process. Then you return for a second interview with the owners themselves. They go over the basic info that the recruiter wrote down about you and all your answers and ask more personal questions about when youre available and such.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe you idea of good customer service. Why should we consider 'you'. What makes a good team?
The process was easy. They asked basic questions, had me complete paperwork, and assigned laptop-based tasks. After finishing the assignments, they began the training process and explained the job responsibilities.
I had a referral from a friend who had just started working there. I booked an interview with the manager soon after. Interview was approximately 10-15 minutes long and was asked the typical interview questions. I was hired on the spot.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Tim Hortons in Feb 2026
Interview
Easy. A couple of questions just prepare and stand out. This includes practicing some questions ahead of time and having experience in the fast food industry is very helpful. You got this.
