      Crew Member Interview

      Aug 6, 2013

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Chipotle (Houston, TX) in Aug 2013

      Interview

      Interview went great for me! The only two things I didn't like were that they emailed me the day of the interview at around 12:00 pm, asking that arrive at the restaurant for 4:00 pm. That was more than enough time to get prepared, but had I not checked my email, I would've missed my window of opportunity. My other concern was that when I did show up (15 minutes early), I had to wait around a bit longer than 4:00 before the hiring manager came out to interview me. I'm not complaining, considering I really wanted the job, but I felt like if I stuck to the set time, they should too. Aside from that, I was interviewed by 2 managers, one was the actual hiring manager and the other was in training (He did most of the talking.) That lightened my load since he was in training and this was my first job interview. Everything went very smoothly after that. His very first question/request was, "Tell me about yourself." Easy enough, I talked about school, sports, volunteering, one of my hobbies, and a couple of my strengths. Me bringing up school brought up a concern on their behalf of whether or not I'd be able to commit to the hours laid out for me, but I told them it wouldn't be a problem and explained why. They seemed understanding enough; they didn't even mind if I was late sometimes so long as I notified that at least that morning in advance. The other manager asked me questions regarding my knowledge of the company. I owned that part of the interview considering I had done my research on the Chipotle website before showing up. An important point there is, "Food With Integrity" which is basically Chipotle's program for ensuring fresh meat and veggies for the franchise. She also asked why I wanted to work for Chipotle and I was honest and sincere (as you should be), so that was just as easy as talking about myself. Both managers seemed impressed overall, constantly smiling and laughing with me. At the end of the interview, they told me they would email me a response later that day or early the next morning. I got my "Congratulations and welcome to Chipotle!" email about 2 hours later.

      Question 1

      Though I wouldn't call it "difficult or unexpected", they asked if I was familiar with Food With Integrity.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Bixby Knolls, CA) in Jul 2026

      Interview

      The interview was pretty easy, but I had to wait 30 to 40 minutes after my interview was scheduled to be interviewed. Inside the Chipotle, it was extremely hot and really uncomfortable, but other than that, the interview was pretty easy. But I haven’t heard back, as I was supposed to get a call on Sunday.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They mainly asked me for my availability throughout the week, if I’m able to work weekends, what my good and bad qualities were, and that’s pretty much it and hobbies.
