I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen
Interview
When I showed up early (about 10 minutes) I was asked to have a seat in the waiting area and I was told the manager would be up to get me in a few. I waited about an hour until he did come up to get me. The questions asked were pretty typical of an interview. I was hired and worked for the company for several years. I learned that sometimes if they are busy and you end up waiting for ever for the interview it is kind of there way of weeding out people who will just end up quitting shortly after getting trained. If you really want a job you will wait, and usually the people that did wait weren't a big waste of time and effort.

I waited in by the host table and was called to get interviewed very quickly. I sat with a guy that didn't believe me when I was telling him my references.

I applied online. I interviewed at Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen (Little Rock, AR) in Feb 2025
Interview
Asks you generic interview questions and ask you when your available to work and if you will be available for orientation. They also want to know how much prior restaurant experience you have and go over your resume. Former restaurant experience isn't needed because they said they train from the ground down.
