Positive experience

Easy interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at McDonald's (Montreal, QC) in Feb 2018

Interview

I spoke to the manager about my qualifications and motivations to join the McDonalds Corporation. We spoke for about 25 minutes in total, at one of the franchises. I got to then meet the people I’d be working with and was fairly rapidly hired to join as part of the team. All in all it was a friendly, curteous and professional process during which I was very at ease.
