This review is meant as a warning for anyone who wishes to apply at this particular Taco Bell (the one by Wal-Mart in Tulare). I was recently invited to an interview at this Taco Bell, about 2 weeks ago. I arrived early, dressed appropriately, politely asked for my interviewer. He came out, he being the supervisor of not just this Taco Bell, but the one for Corcoran's Taco Bell, and a few other Taco Bells, in Porterville and maybe Visalia as well. Everything was going well, I had the correct Food Handler's certificate, open availability, work experience at different jobs, reliable transportation, the whole works. Things went so well, in fact, the supervisor asked me if I had my DL and Social Security card? I said yes, in my wallet, in the car. He asked me to get it, I did, he wrote down my information, and said that he'd run a background check on me, and if it cleared, most likely I'd be offered a position. I wasn't very hopeful, but the man told me to go home and look for a black belt, black pants, and black shoes, and that a work shirt would be provided. He asked my shirt size and repeatedly said that if I passed my background check, I would likely be hired. I grew rather excited when he told me to find the clothes that would make up part of my uniform, and he said I should hear from the manager the next day (Thursday) or Friday. I went home, found a pair of black pants, then dipped into my electricity bill money to buy a black belt and slip resistant shoes. They never called. I had cancelled an interview with a temp agency for Friday morning because this man was almost guaranteeing me a position, and he flaked on me. I tried to get another interview with the temp agency a week after my misleading Taco Bell interview, but they were no longer interested in me. I think the supervisor is a really bad person to smile to my face when he knew he never had any intention of hiring me. I've had interviewers lie to me before, but this was ridiculous. I've never been arrested, I don't smoke or drink, there would be nothing at all wrong in my background check, so there was no reason not to hire me. Just be careful, anyone who applies to this Taco Bell; don't get your hopes up, or you might end up like me, having to borrow for your electricity bill because you were naive enough to believe the supervisor's lies. Yes he never said he'd for sure hire me, but why tell me to get clothes ready? Why ask for my shirt size? Why say that I would likely be hired if my background check was clean, which I know for sure it is? I hate liars read more
