I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Yard House (Tucson, AZ) in Mar 2022
Interview
So I applied on a Thursday and got the interview for the following Tuesday and I thought it would be worth it since they scheduled my interview so close to the time that I applied. The manager was honestly a bit unprepared for the interview. I walked in and talked to the host and told them that I had an interview and they went and told the manager and when they came back, they just kept on laughing at me and looking at me. A few minutes later, the manager came and we walked to a far table in the back corner of the restaurant when we sat down, he told me that the position was filled and to call him back in 3 weeks to see if there were any open spots open. And then told me to have a good day and ended the interview. It took honestly less than a minute. I wasted my time getting ready and going there for something that could've been told over the phone.

They asked me a lot of questions about how to seat people , and different scenario based questions. How deal with difficult customer questions and questions about making reservations and what to say. It will help if you do some research on that.
In person, one on one with general manager. A single round after a resume drop. After the interview they followed up via email about the job and if they needed any more information
