I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at McDonald's (Indianapolis, IN) in Sep 2012
Interview
The interview was not stressful. Personally I dressed in nice casual wear because it is still a job interview and I've seen people turned down for wearing sweatpants, so at the very least dress in something nice even if it is a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Mostly you talk about your life, how open your time frame is for working, and what you are looking at for the job (longterm, while in school, etc). It is a pretty easy process if you think about your availability ahead of time and if you can make it to work or not on time.
Very good, standard questions and very accommodating. They were easy to schedule with and found a time that suited my schedule. It was a very positive experience! This may have been the local management team, but I hope it is on an organizational level

Tell me about one thing someone frustrated you, and how did you react
After applying through their system, in-person interview. It was very easy and casual. (2024, Dublin) Some questions about food safety and hospitality but it's also easy and simple questions. I did an interview in the dinning area, the second floor of the shop.

What is the most important for you working here? (hygiene, customer services etc)
A group interview with around 8 people where we were asked to just introduce ourselves and have a conversation with each other while the hiring manager was watching. They hired around half of us.
