I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Ames, IA) in Jan 2026
Interview
The interviewer was unprepared, didn't see my application, and had no idea an interview was scheduled. We went through all my previous job experience and such, only to be told they're not hiring anyway.

Question 1
If we contacted your previous managers, what would they tell us about you?
I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2026
Interview
Very brief, was only asked a few questions. I felt a decision about not hiring me was made before the interviewer even sat down. I suspect the interviewer was not accustomed to interviewing and may actually only standing in for a manager that was not working that day
The interview process included an application, attending a brief in-person interview, answering questions about teamwork, availability, customer service, and attitude, and was sometimes followed by a same-day or quick hiring decision.
Very tired manager and kept getting sidetracked seemed uninterested in interview process. Couldn't concentrate on what he was saying. Not good interview at all and I knew I wouldn't get a call back by way he acted
