      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Red Robin (Munhall, PA)

      Interview

      It was a two part interview. The first manager interviewed me and asked trick questions. He had more but only asked me 3 since i had no prior experience they didnt apply to me. Then the higher up manager did a follow up right after him and described the job responsibilities.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      If i was working on a group project and We each had out own sections to complete and needed to be done the next day, but i was no where near complete with my own section while the others were almost complete, what would i do to get my project complete in time. (They may word it differently) when fist asked it was worded poorly and the manager had to elaborate for me but not all managers might do the same. The original question was , if i had to complete a project in a specific time frame and was nowhere near done, what would i do to complete it in time?

      Easy interview

      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.
