I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Sonic (Montgomery, IL) in Mar 2015
Interview
You go through two interviews in the process of getting hired. One is with an Assistant manager who asks you a few questions based off of your online application, and if that goes well and he/she thinks you would fit the job, you have one more interview with the store manager who asks you similar questions to the previous interview, and a few more questions regarding what you would do in certain situations you may be confronted with and how you would respond to them. If the store manager liked you and thinks you are good for the job they will call and offer the job to you in the next few days.
Interview questions [4]
Question 1
What would you do if a customer is angry and/or upset with their food, drinks, or anything at all?
The process was a very simple and friendly interview. Very professional for a fast food chain. Would recommend for a high school student or a recent graduate looking to start making money.
Quick and simple. Simply apply online for the location you want to work in. When they are hiring, they call you back rather quick. Go for the interview and it's easy.
