First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at JOEY Restaurants.
Prep/Line Cook
It's a 3-step process, starting with a pre-recorded interview. If you pass that, you move on to an interview with the recruiter and then a final one with the head chef. I got there 15 minutes early like you should, but the interviewer was 20 minutes late and didn't say anything. I asked the hostess after a bit and she was rude. I waited like 30+ minutes total before it started. No apology, no reason, just seemed rushed and like they didn't care.
- Can you introduce yourself?
- What would you say are your greatest strengths and weakest points?
- What makes you want to work for Joey's?
Line Cook
I had a video interview on Skype first with HR and then with the head chef. They were very comforting during the interview. They know the brand in and out and that's the best part about them; they very well know what they represent.
- Can you tell me about your experience?
- Describe your personality.
- How do you work in a team?
Server
I had three tries to record myself answering four questions, each between 1-3 minutes. I could pick which of the three recordings to submit, and they gave me the questions beforehand. The questions asked were to introduce myself and explain my interest in working at Joey's, a situation where I didn't keep a promise and my subsequent actions, my weaknesses and how I manage them, and my definition of hospitality.
- Can you introduce yourself and tell me why you're interested in working at Joey's?
- Describe a time you failed to fulfill a promise and what you did about it afterwards.
- What are your weaknesses and how do you overcome them?
