It was pretty easy. Interview was about 10 minutes. All I did was walk in and went straight to it. They ask you about hobbies and if I ever worked in the fast food industry.

I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Carl's Jr (Grass Valley, CA) in Nov 2025
Interview
Went inside and let them know I was there about 5 minutes early, the interviewer was a little late cause they were pretty busy with the drive thru, when she sat down we mostly talked about the surrounding area, she asked a few questions about my schedule and if I had a mode of transportation, nothing really hard. She let me know the GM said there wasn't any room for new hires but she would add me to a list and if they had someone quit, they would call people from that list. She gave more advice on interviews, like going in person with a resume rather than online being a better choice, and she even told me about a few places that were hiring.
Overall most impressive interview I've had so far.
Applied online, then came in after arranging an interview time with the store manager over a call. Though it was a pretty last minute interview, it was a relaxed but comprehensive experience. Felt like there was an actual back and forth rather than just being judged as the interviewee. Was given a contract at the end of the interview.
