They asked me some basic questions about if I knew about the job and what my past experience was like. We also talked about my schedule and when I could work. Since I hadn't done this exact job before, they asked about other jobs I might have had that used similar skills. They also asked if I'd be okay with serving food and greeting people too.

I had an interview scheduled for 3:00 PM. The manager was late and didn't arrive until 3:45 PM. Then, a Shift Lead conducted my interview instead of the manager. It was quiet and dim in the restaurant, which made me question if I wanted to work there. I never met the manager, even though a "second interview" was mentioned, which felt like a polite way to reschedule. They don't let you start behind the bar right away, regardless of experience, which is understandable for busy restaurants. The shift lead mentioned that they have a high turnover rate, which I could see why.

  • Is having a car a requirement for this position?
