The interview was very straightforward and was an informal sit down between myself and the manager. My interviewer was warm and friendly. I was asked about my previous customer service experience, how I approach customers, and told about uniform/safety requirements and asked about scheduling.

Interview
Started out well , except I applied for a waitress/server position and one of the first questions were, “I don’t know why but the other manager wants to know if you can hostess” So I told them that’s not what I put a resume in for and they even had me come in for a second interview so I was very excited and positive I would be hired. I mean why would they have me come in for a second interview if I wasn’t being at least considered. But no!! At the end of the second interview they said well we are hiring for a hostess so we’ll give you a call if a position comes open. They waisted my time, money, and gas for NOTHING!!
