      Line Cook Interview

      Dec 10, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Brooklyn, NY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Shake Shack (Brooklyn, NY) in Jan 2024

      Interview

      Nice manager and the interview was quick. She asked questions about how I work on a team and how long I've been cooking professionally. I got a call that they hired someone else which was a bummer but I appreciated that they at least called. So many places will ghost you and not care.
