08.03.12 | How did you get it? Did you have to like the do the whole interview thing or what? |
ILJ
08.03.12 | It took me long enough to get one though, I'm freakin' 19 for crying out loud. I'm still sort of shocked I got the job.
At least Subway is better than McDonalds and other shitty fast food chains. |

08.03.12 | "How did you get it? Did you have to like the do the whole interview thing or what?"
Yes. I did the application, then got an interview and apparently did a damn good job. It was hard to force myself to appear outgoing. Haha. |

basically, though in a way it was shitty because EVERY sub is different, so some assholes were insistent on very particular ways. but working there led to me losing tons of weight so that was sweet after doing the whole double meat extra cheese and bacon subs ohhh buddy

08.03.12 | I feel like trying to go for Food Lion or Farm Fresh (the ones really close to my neighborhood, in particular). But I'm very clueless with the interviews and the applications involved.
"It was hard to force myself to appear outgoing."
Ugh, I'm always worried about having to that. |

08.03.12 | interviews are super easy. just look up the company/person you'll be working for and learn their business model and culture and it'll impress the shit out of anyone interviewing you |

Yeah this is true. That's why I'm not usually too picky when I go there because it's got to be annoying as hell when people get super specific.
"But I'm very clueless with the interviews and the applications involved."
It's just kind of a trial and error thing. You can look up some sample interview questions on line, that really helped me prepare. They generally ask a super oddball question though, like I was asked "If you had to be a brick what building would you be a brick in?" or some shit like that.
As for the outgoing thing, just try to always smile, laugh if they make a joke, be polite, say hi, ask how they're doing, etc. |

Nah, it was just always emphasized that I focus on school instead. If I had gotten a job last year like I had planned, I probably would have been fucked first quarter. I wasn't very good at time management. |

08.03.12 | well maybe if you had a job as a young'n ya woulda developed time management skillz duh |

The unmastered (or so everybody claims) promo leaked, and that's what everybody is hearing. There isn't a mastered version that's leaked so far as I know, but the promo still sounds damn good. But no, no legal stream to my knowledge. |
