I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Samuel Smith Old Brewery (Chester, England) in Oct 2017
Interview
The company director turned up at my house and asked about my experience, before hounding my previous employers for a full run down on my work etc. After this, all he seemed interested in was whether i had the £1000 fidelity bond to give him before getting the pub. From what i can gather, i was very lucky to get this bond back after i decided to leave the company.
