First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Pei Wei Asian Diner.

I had a sit down conversation with the General Manager. It was informal and not intimidating. They are always on the lookout for smart, upbeat, hard-working people to grow with them. The place has a private dining room for up to 75 guests complete with a private bar, so it's a very large establishment.
- Can you describe a time you faced a problem and how you resolved it?

It was a pretty laid-back interview, done at a desk during a lull between the lunch and dinner rushes. It went for about 45 minutes, and I got the job offer right then and there. They weren't looking for anything super technical, just wanted to see if I could talk the talk, looked put-together, and had a good attitude.
- Tell me about a challenge you faced in a past role and how you resolved it.
- What do you consider your greatest weakness?
- How would you respond if a customer said they received the wrong order?
Cashier
I went in on a Tuesday afternoon, asked for an application, filled it out, and then asked to see a manager to give it to them directly. The manager was there, took my application, and said they'd be in touch. After that, I was called in for an interview and was offered the job right away (I was 16 and it was my first job). It was a really nice experience.
