I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Yard House (Los Angeles, CA) in Jun 2021
Interview
Two rounds of in person, one on one interviews with managers. Asking about experience, ability to complete menu tests, emphasis on availability and the fast aced nature of the restaurant.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you learn and memorize all 100+ beers we have?
Restaurant/service experience preferred. Guage on overall beer knowledge, but will train on menu. Sunday availability is needed.
Ability to work late nights and maintain high volume work flow. Good vibes and personality!
All the managers were involved in the interview process. Extremely laid back and i felt comfortable. Some questions were work related and some had nothing to do with work. One of the easiest interviews I’ve ever had.
Short and quick the manager didn’t really care much because of a transfer but they just reviewed basic serving procedures and what they look for in servers. Gets pretty busy during happy hour so you have to be able to handle multiple tables at once
