do'nt do this

Well, you need the job. But how badly do you need it?

I would just be myself. Tell them you expect strict lines and solid leadership, then you will do your part.

If they ask you, or even if they don't ask you, how you react to harassment, bullying and negative environments, or such questions, you can tell them that you expect the above mentioned (strict lines and solid leadership), and that you expect negative influences to be dealt with quickly. You can tell them that you do not function well in dysfunctional working environments. You expect an open environment. This is what i mean, would you push yourself to keep the job even if you became a bitter and depressed individual?

There is no "fake it till you make it", that is the biggest bullshit line ever to be invented. If you are honest, the work experience will grow on you. If you work based on a lie, you will lament ever starting there and your whole life could end up feeling meaningless.

Be HONEST! And do not be afraid. If you are honest, you have no -need- to be afraid.

Having 10-20% of your subconscious locked to the big picture is no bad thing either. If you should not get the interview despite your best efforts, just think that there are probably hundreds of people interviewed. There are probabilities playing a role here. So getting yourself too nervous will only work against you.

At the end of the interview, you can ask them that if you do not get picked, you would kindly ask to get a phone call or email and be told why you didn't get the job, so that you can prepare yourself better for another interview.

If they tell you that you got close, you can tell them that you would like to have them keep you on file, or ask them if you can ask them in a few months or a year if there is another opening.

An interview is never black or white, just like life. If they tell you that you are not what they are looking for, then of course it would be of little point to nag a hole in their head. But if they give you positive remarks, keeping the business connection warm over time shows that you are passionate and caring.

Getting and keeping a job is a constant development process, again just like life.

Starts chopping vegetables as soon as you walk in

Is a dish pit, likey they have no expectations, turn over rates like 85% within a quarter on average.

What do employers want from a prospective dishwasher?

They want someone hard working, likeable and honest, that means being transparent about the questions they ask you. If you come across as honest and likeable you have a good chance of getting hired even if the answer wasn't perfect.

Don't overthink it

Right, dish pits are expected to have high turnover. That's why they hire literally anyone.

This. Employers love it when people come in to interview for a dishwashing position already making demands before the interview is over.
They say to dress for the job you want. Come in wearing his clothes and he'll be so impressed by your power move that he'll wash the dishes so you can run his company.



They want someone who will show up every day and wash dishes without pissing everyone off. They're not looking for someone amazing.
I managed a restaurant when I was younger and I was told specifically by the owner that I should try to hire someone "just shitty enough to keep working in the dish pit but not shitty enough to call in"

no preparation required tbh

So basically you advising the OP to tell his intetviewers not to be like leadership at d2jsp (as per your posts)

I'm sure you'll get the gig. This job will be a stepping stone for you. Next time consider looking at glassdoor.com

People who have both been offered the position or declined the position will tell you what kind of interview questions were asked, what answers they gave and whether it elicited a positive or negative response from the interviewer. It's helped me loads for some pretty intense interview processes, some lasting as long as 3 months.

Past performance is indicative of future performance. Do well at this job and you can use that to springboard into the next one.
