The manager took a while to interview me. It felt a bit too formal for a cashier role, even though the restaurant itself is upscale with high prices and quality.

The interview was short and to the point. I met with the General Manager and Head Chef. It felt like a formality to meet the second person because they both asked similar questions. They were both friendly and seemed more interested in getting to know me as a person than what was on paper.

I applied online and also came in and talked to them. They were super nice and let me know they were planning on interviewing me and then they called me a few days later to set up a time. When I went in for the interview, I met with the front of house manager and did most of the interview with her and then was introduced to the GM and got a job offer right away.

The interview process was straightforward. I went in for two rounds of interviews total, one with the cashier and the other with the GM. The entire experience was fruitful and fluid and I would recommend applying to anyone interested in whole food eating and hospitality. They have an excellent team in La Jolla.
