      As a manager my interview process is a little bit different. They want to make sure that I'm trying to get along with upper management, along with also team leaders. And I'm not gonna come in there, head. Strong, but they still want you to be headstrong, and know what you're doing so yeah, this is hello. It's a bit more challenging for them to understand your. I'm worth work ethics as a bounger. I just want to encourage most of you to know that you have go out thereing. I want to try to just put your best foot forward and apply. Because managers are looking for the best person With your confident.
