Give me real answers; I've never had an interview before

Paint your nose red

>>10608114
Firm handshake.
Eye contact.
Shoes.
Tie.
Cufflinks.

>>10608079
Stay cool don’t spaz out

>>10608114
Get fucked, McCuck

>>10608114
That was real advice you ungrateful faggot

>>10608114
OK.
Polo shirt, slacks. If not, best things you've got.
Your strengths are dedication and willingness to get the job done. If you have anything else you're proud of, throw it in there.
When they ask about weaknesses, talk about a time you screwed up, but fixed it. If that's not good enough, tell them 'I'm working on improving X' instead of saying you're bad at something.

Eye contact for several seconds at a time. Try to engage and ask questions. 'What's a busy time like at this location?' 'What are the options for promotion?'

Basically, imagine you're a manager. What sort of things would convince you to hire a guy?

How fucking hard would it be to land a job at McDonald's?

>>10608143
McDonalds is a step up from what I'm doing now. I hate neetbux

>>10608114
Life and learn. Just not be a retard, lie if you feel it's necessary

>>10608196
>Just not be a retard
Implying I know how to do that

>>10608079
you in Canada? today is national hiring day lmao

>>10608079
help push the fortnite burger and become a millionaire

>>10608208
Jesus, anon. Don't pucci out during the interview.

Just be yourself. If you can't get a job at McDonald's then you might as well buy some rope

>>10608079
Don't look all nervous and scared during the interview. Be confident in your answers and make eye contact when you speak. Don't sound like you didn't prepare, when they ask you questions, have an answer ready. Be personable and make them think you will be a cool dude to work with. That's really the main thing. I've never worked at McDonalds but when I hire desktop support people I hire the dudes that are socially adept because I can teach a monkey to fix a computer.

>>10608079
Oh and one other thing that I forgot. Come up with some things you can ask about. When they ask you if you have any questions, ask some stuff like you are really fucking interested in the answers. As someone who often interviews people, if people don't have anything they want to ask about by the end of the interview then I'm probably not going to hire them because I'd rather have someone that shows a fucking interest in their work and their workplace.

>>10608213
No, NZ
>>10608241
>when they ask you questions, have an answer ready.
How?

>>10608079

>>10608161
>'What are the options for promotion?'
lmao what? It's McDonalds. I don't want to sound like a cunt

>>10608182
Harder than you think, I've been sending my resume every summer to dozens of fast food chains since I was 18 years old and I never even got to the interview part. They get TONS of applications and have plenty of people to chose from.

Is an interview a good sign? I've never gotten this far. Do they interview everyone?

>>10608278
>How?
Usually before you go to an interview you do some research about the company, about the specific place you're going to be working, and you have an idea of what you are going to bring to the table in terms of your skills and abilities, experience, etc. I just mean that when they ask interview questions (and most of the time for basically everyone these are fairly standard) but if someone asks "Why do you want to work here?" what are you going to say? "I need money?" Everybody needs money. Why do you want to work _HERE_, you know? It helps to spend a bit of time before the interview thinking about the kinds of questions that are likely to be asked and what you might say in response to those questions, because not fumbling your answers and tripping over your words goes a long way towards impressing potential employers, especially at the entry level. Also when people interview for jobs and answer questions confidently without a bunch of "Umm..." that's a sign of someone who's got all their shit in one sock because if I was interviewing for maccas and I got one whiff of "this dude might just not show up someday because he hates his job," I'm not gonna call that person back, you know?

It's all about preparation. Confidence comes with preparation.

>>10608439
So if they ask why, what should I say?

>>10608161
>>10608439
Based on his responses, I don't think there is hope for OP outside of McWaging.

>>10608450
I dunno man, I think the point is that you should ask yourself that question. Nobody expects you to stay in a job at mcdonalds forever probably so it's not like you need to pretend that you're gonna make a career out of it. Just make something up that you can agree with so it doesn't sound fake when you say it. I've always said that often the best lie is the truth.

>>10608470
Eh, he might be young. Not everyone learns all this stuff at the same time. I didn't really figure it out until I was almost 30 to be honest.

>>10608497
I don't have much of an answer outside of "it's close to home and the money is better than neet dollars" I'm 19 and want to move out of my parents home and a job is the only way to do that

>>10608079
Be sure to tell them that once the link singularity happens you are going to quit.

>>10608470
Because I want a real job and not hoping for the next meme coin to take off?

>>10608079
love it

>>10608079
Ask if you get free big macs

>>10608541
At 19 you don’t need an answer

Do people actually apply for a job at mcdonald here? I thought it was just a meme

Minimize use of "um." Silence is golden in comparison.

>>10608402
Is getting an interview a good sign?

>>10608541
Eh could be anything. Maybe something about how you like working as part of a team or something. It doesn't matter if it's bullshit or not as long as it's not obviously a lie. The more important thing is that you actually have an answer for it because most people don't and they just go something like "Uhh.... *shrug* I need money I guess." and if you say almost anything besides that then they will know you actually put a bit of thought into it and didn't just walk in after posting a thread on 4chan saying that you didn't prepare for your interview whatamigonnado!

Good luck!

>>10608079
reminds me of the day when I tried getting hired at Fry's electronics as a college kid and got denied
>fucking Fry's Carl !
>those faggots clearly don't hire overqualified people anymore

>>10608079
>firm handshake
>shoot the shit about sport and cars with the interviewer afterwards

>>10608713
Why not? They hire unskilled people and they pay money. OP seems to live in NZ and I reckon the McDonalds wage there is probably alright for a first job, if the family I have in Australia is any indication.

>>10608757
My interviewer is a girl though
>>10608761
Minimum wage here is $16.5, which is like $12 USD

>>10608783
Here is the bitter truth. The only attributes searched for in unskilled labor is time availability and dependability. Prove your time is theirs, don't smell of weed, and you're in.

>>10608114
Be confident, don't be a sperglord, but not overconfident. (it's a slow and insidious killer lol)
Unironic firm handshake
Be polite
Sit up straight
Speak clearly
If you're a social person talk about how you like being around other people, if not then you're on your own senpai

>>10608835
Also forgot,
MAKE EYE CONTACT
If you don't make eye contact with the guy then you're almost certainly boned

>>10608812
>Bitter
All I have to offer is time; that's perfect

>>10608108

>>10608079

You go and get the job. Then you make sure you are doing the customer service and then you use that to jobhop to something slightly less shit like target or something.

Then you actually develop some skills and go for a real career.

>>10608671
No, because you're fucking stupid, you are asking /biz/ for advice for a McDonalds interview the day of.

>>10608942
I still think this is a strange larp. No way anyone is this pathetic to ask /biz/ for advice on a mcjob interview. Right?

>>10609141
I am pathetic though
