I applied online. I interviewed at Tim Hortons in May 2025
Interview
Absolutely dreadful, had a phone call. Manager had really bad communication and English. Agreed to a face to face interview. Turned up to interview to find out they double booked interview with someone else. As I sat there waiting whilst other was getting interview. Manager comes up to me are you waiting for food? No I'm here for interview I told staff member behind front counter. Just not a good start, no beverage offered. Really hot day. No life or personality with the interviewing managers. I could only imagine what their service is like. Dirty establishment, I thought give them benefit of the doubt. First interview I've experienced that whilst walking away I thought I don't want to work here. Checks out glass door low and behold.
Straightforward and simple questions like tell me about yourself, why this job and what is your greatest strength and weakness. How do you handle stressful situations? Questions may differ by location.
The process was easy. They asked basic questions, had me complete paperwork, and assigned laptop-based tasks. After finishing the assignments, they began the training process and explained the job responsibilities.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Tim Hortons (Toronto, ON) in Jun 2026
Interview
I handed in my resume online then got a call about 3 days later for an interview. I was interviewed at an interview location and it probably took about 5 minutes, pretty underwhelming.
