I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen (Katy, TX) in Jun 2017
Interview
I called them after I had filled out the application and I immediately set up an interview for the next day. When I got there, I only waited about 10 minutes. Then I was welcomed by the general manager who proceeded to interview me. He literally only asked me about 2 questions and began to talk about the background of Cheddars for 20 minutes. I was then encountered by the service manager who hired me on the spot. I had no previous experience.

Asks you generic interview questions and ask you when your available to work and if you will be available for orientation.
