Friendly interview, clear and concise questions making it easy to understand and answer most effectively. The interview started on time and lasted around 20 minutes. Went through a series of scenarios involving how to deal with specific customer questions / issues and how to ensure the management of the shop floor remains smooth during busy customer times.

Very impersonal. All done online and the logic between what constitutes a good or bad answer is totally unidentifiable. You would have better luck turning up in person and asking if you can hand in your CV and interview in person instead!
