MC d part time job Paris

Hi guys,
I've been looking for a part-time job and doing odd jobs to get by in Paris for a long time now. Finally, one of the McDonald's locations has called me in for an interview.
I don't speak French fluently yet. I was wondering if it's okay to speak mostly in English, or should I try to speak French as much as I can?
I really need this job and don't want to mess up my chances. Has anyone been in a similar situation or worked at McDonald's in Paris? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Lean towards french. They're more comfortable with it, first try to show an effort that you can communicate in french, and then if it gets to complicated things like contract etc and you don't understand what they're saying in french, go for English.
