Behavioral Presentation
I was seated in a booth and had to wait a long time to be seen. During that wait, a couple of customers tried to flirt with me. Eventually, an acting manager came over and asked me why I wanted to be a waitress. I explained that I enjoy helping people, wanted a faster-paced role than a hostess, and like the restaurant business. She then got the senior manager, who inquired about my availability. He mentioned that since I'm only 18, it might be challenging to learn all the drink menu but agreed to give me a shot. He handed me a packet and told me to return the following Wednesday. As a side note, the training itself was not great. We would come in, and often be sent home because it wasn't busy enough for effective training, yet they wouldn't schedule training during busy periods. As a result, the training process dragged on.

I had a chat with the General Manager in the morning. It was mostly a casual conversation, touching on my past work and education. They focused on whether I had the right personality and energy for the job. It was a pretty straightforward and easy interview.

You'll go through 3 interviews, and they're pretty simple, they pretty much hire anybody. It usually helps to have some serving experience. Even if you just worked as a cashier, you can exaggerate that experience. I think they like people who are fresh so they can teach you their way, because it's a very unique place to work.
