I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at McDonald's (Whitehall, PA)
Interview
A few questions about previous work background and why I wanted to work there. What I was going to school for and what my future goals were. What hours I was available to work and If I minded working closing shifts.
The interview consists of a few Basic questions to test your understanding of customer service. Very relaxed approach to hiring and you typically hear back very quickly(within a few days )
Phone call. Then in person interview, if it goes well they'll do a background check. Very streamlined process, it isn't difficult. They mostly care about what hours you are free.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Current occupation. Available Hours. If you have a history of crime.
Very simple questions, about school, personality etc. Then we went straight to discussing availability and it was as easy as that. They aren't looking for much so you don't need to do much.
