So you’re scheduled for an interview? Terrific! Here are a few tips to help you prepare.
Do Your Homework
Spend some time reading about the services ARAMARK provides. Read about our history, our vision and the latest news. Review job descriptions for several positions that interest you.
Dress Appropriately
Business
suits are typically worn during interviews. Neutral colors are your
safest bet. If your interview is at one of our field sites, please be
cautious of your footwear - keep it comfortable and think about safety.
Chances are you’re going to be walking around in kitchens, laundry
facilities or storerooms. Please do not wear open-toed shoes!
Relax
Interviews
are often stressful. Take a deep breath and have questions ready. The
more prepared and relaxed you are, the easier the interview is – for
both parties!
Ask Questions
The interview
is the perfect time for you to find out more about ARAMARK. Remember,
you are interviewing us too. Ask about the interviewer’s background
with ARAMARK. Inquire about training programs. Find out what your
biggest challenges may be. Bring a list of questions.
Bring Copies of Your Resume
You
may have updated your resume since applying online. No problem! Just
bring a few paper copies for us. Nothing fancy, just print off a clean
copy so we can use that as a reference during the interview.
Be Ready to Discuss Your Background/Experience
Be prepared to discuss previous jobs and/or internship experiences, as well as extra-curricular activities.
Be Specific
Your responses will be more interesting if you provide detail. Tell us the “who, what, where, when, why and how.”
