I had a quick chat with the manager and they asked me a few questions, and then I got the job. They didn't ask much, but you really need to be able to work weekends. You can potentially change this later on, but it's better if you can do weekends.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Do you have a lot of experience in serving customers?
  • Can you work on weekends?

It was a simple interview where they reviewed my resume and past work experiences. They also explained their payment structure, including their tipping system and how employees get paid. The interviewers were friendly and treated me well, and they looked over my resume very carefully.

Behavioral Technical

It was a quick and simple interview with questions about my past job experience and education. They wanted to know what I could bring to the team but mainly focused on things I couldn't do, like no black socks, no facial hair, and only black belts. It was basically just scolding.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Do you envision yourself staying with this company for the next 3 to 5 years?
