Everyone was super friendly and nice. They explained the process and it all seemed really fair. A 30-word minimum feels pretty long though, and I'm not sure I have that much to say about pancakes.

I went in on a Friday morning to get an application. The restaurant was busy but the hostess helped me out and told me when to come back and who to talk to. I brought the application back on Wednesday afternoon and got a call the next day to set up an interview for Friday morning. I got there about 15 minutes early. The hostess was nice again, and so was the person I met with. I sat in the banquet room and waited for the GM. It was the start of the Friday rush but everyone was calm and organized. They offered me coffee, which I took. The GM interviewed me for about 15 minutes. They were really nice and professional. They asked me for a second interview right then, and I agreed. The manager asked about my skills calmly and respectfully, without repeating questions. This interview was about 10 minutes. Right after, I got an offer and the training schedule, which started the next Tuesday.

Set up a time to speak with the general manager after initially speaking with the on duty manager. Then, I had a nice sit down conversation with the general manager and scheduling manager.
