I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at McDonald's (Columbus, OH) in Dec 2017
Interview
Submit application online. Then go into a Restruant for an interview and meet with the manager. Discuss expectations and what a typical day is like. There was opportunity to ask questions and get a feel if this is something I’d like to do.
Just simple questions about behaviors and expereinces about other jobs that you have worked. Was very standard of the road job interview. Make sure to know what they like for cook and custmer experiences
Not too shabby
Flipped the patties and put the fries in the bag
Interviewer was nice
And the kitchen smelt good
Also found some free food left on seat after interview made me decide on working here
It was a good interview where they just asked about my previous experiences and didn't dive deep into much. I would recommend just practicing how to tell a story as communication is pretty important to this process.
