The interview process included a recruiter call and an onsite interview. The interviewer was friendly, but unclear about how Northstar operates, like their tip system. They seemed a bit strict regarding jewelry and clothing. Overall, it was a good experience, and I got a preview shift.

We met in person for an interview where I talked to different team members. Then, I did a full day trial shift, working in both the back and front of the house. During the shift, I did cooking, cleaning, and showed my knife skills.

If you get called in for an interview, you just need to smile and be there. If you get a preview shift, you're pretty much hired. If you don't get a preview shift when you interview, they've already decided to move on, but they haven't told you yet.

  • What are your hobbies or how do you spend your free time?
  • Are you available to work on weekends?
