Interview
I applied online and a week later I got a phone call for an interview later that week.
I went to the interview I was 20 mins late due to a mistake of place. I called the hiring manager he understood and still let me come in. We had the interview, had me do an application on paper and we did a one on one interview, I honestly didn't know anything about the place and I told him so, he told me what they stand for and how they work, like 30 mins later the interview was over the manager told me to text him because his email was way unorganized, he let me take a soda for the road and said he would get back to me in a couple days.
Later that week I got a text saying I'm hired and start beginning of the month..
