First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Van Leeuwen Artisian Ice Cream.
Team Member
I sent in my application and heard back pretty quickly for an in-person interview. The person I met with asked me some standard questions for about 15 minutes, typical for a part-time job in food service. They didn't end up offering me the position because of my availability.
- Can you share an instance where a customer was dissatisfied with their order and describe how you handled it?
Ice Cream Scooper
I went to a hiring event at their HQ for the interview. They mainly asked about my customer service background. They also had me talk about myself and asked if I'd tasted the ice cream and what my preferred flavor is. They also wanted to know about my schedule.
- Can you share an instance of receiving excellent customer service and describe what made it good?
- Could you introduce yourself?
- Have you had a chance to try our ice cream?

They asked me to submit copies of my work and when I followed up, it took them months to answer. Super disrespectful. It is fine if I was not qualified for the position, but when they ask a potential employee to do a project and share work, they should be timely with their correspondence.
- What are your design specialities?
Ice Cream Scooper and Cashier
The process is pretty straightforward. You apply online first, then you go to an interview event. All the managers from the local Van Leeuwen stores gather at one shop to conduct interviews. You let them know which location you're interested in and hand over your resume, then you meet the manager.
