So I had this interview for General Manager. First there was like a recruiter call, then a phone screen. Then I had an onsite interview. They asked me about multitasking and dealing with adversity. Also asked about my work experience, specifically if I'd worked in restaurants before. And if I had management experience. Apparently, the experience is really hard to work with.

Behavioral Presentation
It's a pretty thorough process, 4 layers deep with different management levels. They really dig into how you've handled situations with "tell me about a time when..." questions and fact-finding. You start with a phone chat, then meet a senior manager, then shadow another General Manager during a shift, and wrap up with the regional manager.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Describe a situation where your supervisor acted against company policy and explain your course of action.
