I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Cracker Barrel (Tampa, FL) in Sep 2013
Interview
The interview process was fairly simple. I went into the store physically and filled out a paper application. A manager came out and met me. We sat at a table in the back dining room and he spoke with me about which position I was applying for. We set a time and date for a formal interview. On that date, I came into the store in business attire and told the cashier I was there for an interview. I was excorted to the back of the dining room and offered a drink. About 10 minutes later, the general manager met me at the table and sat down. The interview was casual, and we talked about our hobbies. He was very friendly and let me know within 48 hours via phone call that I had gotten the job.
