Perth teenager reveals the shocking question she was asked in ‘worst job interview’ she ever had

A Perth teenager has revealed the shocking question a ‘rude’ manager asked her during the ‘worst job interview’ she’s ever had.

Phoebe Holmes, 19, said she applied in 2020 for a job at Boost Juice, a popular juice and smoothie bar with 580 stores worldwide.

She said she was asked to come back for a “second call,” but when she arrived at the store, the manager announced it would be her trial shift.

In a now viral TikTok video, Ms. Holmes explained that during the first group interview, she wore black leggings and a black top to show off what she would wear to work.

She then wore a denim skirt and “nice top” to the second “solo” interview because her mother had said her leggings weren’t really “interview clothes.”

“Instead of pulling me to the seat, she asked me to come to the kiosk,” the teen said.

“So I go to the kiosk, and she just looks me up and down.”

“And she dead*** says, “What are you wearing? You’re not ready to work yet.”

Ms Holmes said the manager agreed to the interview but was “rude” and didn’t ask her any work-related questions.

“She asks me what I’m going to do next, not real interview questions,” she said.

“I just wanted to say, what’s your problem, I know I didn’t do anything wrong, you screwed up, but you’re not going to admit it and blame me.”

The 19-year-old said the manager stopped the interview after just two minutes.

‘I never heard from her again. If that became my boss, I’d be glad I didn’t work there,” she said.

A Boost Juice spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia that the interview with Ms Holmes was “an unacceptable way to be treated” at Boost.

“We work really hard to create positive experiences with potential employees, so it’s especially disappointing if we don’t live up to our expectations,” he said.

“We have many thousands of happy Boosties and will use this as an opportunity to reinforce the importance that everyone should have the same positive experience in our network.”

TikTok users were quick to share their own job interview horror stories.

“I had a phone interview and then they called me back and told me to come back for a group interview,” one woman wrote.

“Heared up the group interview and was told we would be there for two hours. Not once had they said it would take two hours. My poor mother was waiting outside.’

“I had an interview at Boost Juice. It literally took 10 minutes and the guy got a call within two minutes and got another girl to work to interview,” said another.

‘Always ask for business in writing. You can kindly ask, “a second interview sounds good, can you email me the details,” a third advised.

However, work no longer seems to be an issue for Ms. Holmes, who started her own online business. Shop Better Boutiqueearlier this week.
