Funny and easy interview, like any other in restaurant business. Definitely feel you out for having an outgoing personality. Hire in people for busing/ hosts without experience and cultivate a learning environment to move up to expo/ serving/ bartending.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Red Robin (Wareham, MA)

Interview

I went in to be interviewed. I didn't have a good feeling on my chances. I felt like a number. I felt an instant dislike of me right after I finished. I later got sick eating there so I never went back ever again.
