      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Steak ‘n Shake (South Bend, IN) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      Two interviews were nessecary to get promoted to this position. Human Resources and the Division President. Everyone in upper management wants to see people succeed so it was more of a peep talk than an interview. Before hand there was a period where I was in an acting GM role. Too see if I could handle and enjoy the new position.
