The interview process was really smooth and easy, so don't stress too much. The managers are great and understanding. Just make sure to dress appropriately and be ready for some standard interview questions. It would be ideal if you have some prior server experience.

I had my first interview with the manager and it went really well. She knew I had 5+ years in hospitality. Then I met another manager for a second interview which also went great. We talked about pay and hours. He told me I had to meet with a third manager. This really put me off, it's just a small job. Why go through three interviews to not get hired? I called the first manager back and she confirmed I still had to meet the third manager. I knew then it was over, they totally wasted my time. It's crazy 'cause I have a hiring sign and I hire people myself!

I showed up for my interview and the person who was supposed to interview me wasn’t even working. I double checked, and she had set the time, so I'm not sure how that got messed up. The person who did conduct my interview came off very condescending and rude.

It was pretty long, with 3 interviews. They asked a lot of questions and followed up on them. Someone even came by my current job to check me out. We went back and forth on salary, but they ended up offering a fair package with good benefits and a bonus.
