I began the interview process 4 weeks ago. Was told that they "loved" me each step only to get ghosted the final week. I attempted to email the director a couple of times. Then on the afternoon of June 2 (4 - 5 weeks after the process began), I was contacted that they went with someone else. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE FOOD SERVICE INDUSTRY IN CHICAGO! IT IS EXTREMELY TOXIC!

Interviewer unprepared, didn't have my resume, was an hour late and kept using buzzwords like: "concept, cradle to grave operation, chain-link fence scenario, doomsday weather forecast, etc" ridiculous. It was also very hot outside and interviewer excused himself, then returned with a soft drink but did not bring me one or ask me if I would like anything. Hospitality? I thought it was very strange and very rude.
