There were 3 interviews total. First was a phone call, then one with the Assistant Store Manager (ASM), and finally the General Manager (GM). All interviews were pretty quick and straightforward. The whole process took about 1 to 2 weeks, although they took a couple of months to respond to my initial application.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
First, I got a phone call, and then I had an interview over the phone. After that, they set up an in-person interview. I talked to a manager and then the general manager. They asked me a bunch of questions about my background, rules and regulations, how I handle working under pressure, and how I deal with customers in certain situations. They also talked about the characteristics they're looking for and the job duties. It was a good experience.

Basically, if you do well, you'll be called for a second interview. The first interview is with a manager, and the second is with the General Manager. If you're a people person, this interview should be easy because being personable is super important in hospitality.
