Here are the details:
The interviews will last just 140 seconds as in the hyper speed, think-on-your-feet social media space, Pizza Hut wants applicants who can actually demonstrate their credentialsWhat do you think? Leave your impressions in the comments below?
Candidates are asked to bring nothing more than their smartphones and ID to the interview.
Also, Pizza Hut notes that those who are interested can officially apply for the position on the Pizza Hut careers page or during the interview process, which will include a review of each person’s LinkedIn profile live via mobile device. No paper resumes!
The official job description and responsibilities will be posted to the Pizza Hut career’s mobile site and the company will conduct a another round of interviews via Google+ on March 14.
