Quick, simple, basic restaurant questions. Had to do 2 interviews. It was back to back. Fairly easy if you’ve done hundreds or interviews your whole life. Interviewer was nice. They already had my resume printed and ready.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Busboys and Poets (Washington, DC) in Nov 2023
Interview
Manager who was to interview me didn't show up, but someone else on duty gave me a quick interview and vibe check. He was very busy, but tried to be engaged, asked thoughtful questions, and was easy to talk to.
Got a text shortly after with an offer and invitation to onboarding, but had to decline as something personal had come up and needed to leave town for a while.
