Manager Interview

May 27, 2019

Anonymous employee

Accepted offer

Positive experience

Easy interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Hardee's (Hickory, NC)

Interview

Aggressive, yet inviting. They were both hostile and accommodating which really kept you on your toes. The interviewers kept arguing with each other and it got really personal at one point. In fact, one of the managers quit during the interview - so there was instant advancement opportunity. Would I do it all over again? No. Am I glad I went through it and does it make me a better person in the end? Yes and YES!
