I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Red Robin (Beaverton, OR) in May 2016
Interview
I applied online with a connection to the assistant manager, completed the assessment, and then waited a week until I called them to follow up. My interview was scheduled for the next week and I did three different interviews with three different managers all in the same day. The general manager interviewed me last and offered me the job on the spot.

Question 1
How would you handle a situation where the kitchen is backed up and the team is overall stressed?
The interview was a straightforward and easy process. They asked about my availability, transportation, and prior work experience. The interview went by quickly and felt more like a conversation. It seems like they check to see if you fit in well with the team.

Question 1
How comfortable I am working with people in a fast paced environment.
Super easy going, was able to talk to them like a friend and barely asked hard questions. More like a conversation than an interview. Interviewer had a lot of calls during it but he wasn’t expecting me
Application
I interviewed at Red Robin (Brea, CA)
Interview
My interview was a bit unique. I was interviewed three times, and the final one was by their manager, Christian. He was over an hour late, which I waited for. I never heard anything again from them after, which I found extremely rude after all that time I waited. It's clear they don't value their employee's time.
