Average interview

Application

I interviewed at Iceland Foods (Swindon, Wiltshire, South West England, England)

Interview

Was alright. They have a bias against teenage workers which made the whole interview pointless but the actual experience wasn’t terrible. Workers were kind and the back was an okay space, even if the interview itself was awkward and clearly biased against me getting an offer.
