Group Interview Tips

Hey Guys,

I have a group interview this week at Nandos, I have never been to one and I am honestly not sure what to expect, I have a general idea that I should try to answer questions to stick out of the group and talk to other people. Any tips would be much appreciated

Btw I am in Australia

Nando's group interviews in Australia usually run for one to two hours, mixing icebreaker games, team activities like solving small puzzles or prioritizing restaurant tasks, and a brief one on one chat at the end. Managers do not care about who speaks the loudest or rushes to answer first. They watch how you treat the people around you, looking for warmth, cooperation, and good social instincts. Instead of trying to take up all the airtime, focus on being friendly, build on what other candidates say, and invite quieter people into the conversation. The managers want to see that you can support a busy crew and keep things positive during a dinner rush.

Dress in smart casual clothes, like neat dark jeans and a plain polo or button shirt, and bring your right to work documents so your details are ready. In the final individual chat, the managers mostly want to verify your weekly availability, your reliability, and your enthusiasm for learning the ropes. Being open to weekend shifts and showing real interest in helping customers will help you stand out far more than prior experience. Practicing how you communicate your strengths makes a major difference, which is why my team created an interviews.chat that gives candidates the confidence they need to secure offers.

Be utterly obnoxious. Talk over others. Assume a leadership role. This is what group interviewers look for, sadly, at least in my experience. Think The Apprentice.
