It was good, I arrived 10mins before. Questions are easy, the place was not busy. It was a lady who does the interview, she was nice and we had a bit of a chat. That's why I thought it went well but I didn't get the offer

Phone interview with recruiter then in person interview with GM and AM. First "question" was the GM pushing a copy of the job description at me and asking me to read it because he wanted to make sure I knew what job I applied to because he thought maybe it was a mistake. Humiliating experience.
