I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Einstein Bros. Bagels in Oct 2011
Interview
I responded to an online ad by emailing my resume to them. I got a call for a first interview after about 2 weeks. My first interview was with the General Manager. She sheduled a second interview with the Assistant Manager 3 days later. After a week and a half I called the store and was told that the position was filled but there was a Customer Service position that I could take and work my way up to the Shift Manager. With the economy the way it is, I accepted the Customer Service position.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Einstein Bros. Bagels (Town of Tonawanda, NY) in Dec 2015
Interview
The interview was great! The store manager was able to answer all of my questions right away and I felt as though we had already been friends for quite a while. The integrity of this person is outstanding; speaking with him, I got the impression he really cared for his team.

Interview
Easy going and personable. They sit you down and go over your application and ask general questions on work ethic. If you are applying for a baker/shift position, it is required that you have a vehicle because of the early hours (sometimes as early as 230am). If you get hired your next day worked is a few hour orientation process taking quizzes and answering company questions.

I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Einstein Bros. Bagels
Interview
All the questions were a joke, I was highly overqualified and the manager didn't even know what to talk to me about. He asked questions about what type of food I would be, and other silly nonsense. He never asked about my skills or job training, or anything else that might have had to do with the actual job I was applying for. He said he was the Area Manager, but he seemed completely clueless as to how to conduct an interview. He didn't even seem to understand what a resume' was when I handed it to him.
