It was a straightforward interview. Having previous experience is beneficial. If you're open to working overnight shifts, you might get to manage things independently, which can be advantageous if you're self-reliant. It's generally a good place to start in the restaurant business.

Behavioral Technical
I went in with my friend to turn in there application, the manager took it and said 'I will send it to the big boss.' I then asked for an application, filled it out in front of the manager, and he interviewed me right on the spot and was very impressed. He then asked me to wait while he checked when the other manager would be back. A cook told me the manager liked me and that there are 3 bosses. The manager returned and asked if I could be there the next day at 4:00 PM, arriving at 3:30 PM. I came in the next day around 3:30 PM and met the other manager who said I came highly recommended and that this must have been a second interview because the first boss really liked me. He said he would call tomorrow after hearing from the other manager.
