I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Chipotle
Interview
Either paper application or online. Manager will call for an interview. Interview is one on one with several of the store managers including, but not limited to, general manager, apprentice GM, Service manager and kitchen managers. Some kitchen managers in training may also interview. As many as 4 interviews can be given. Personality type has to be outgoing, optimistic, positive and ambitious.
Asked questions about what positions work best for you, why you want to work there, what makes you a good fit there, where you see yourself in 5 years. Very simple and open to answer any questions I had
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.
