I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Sonic (Oklahoma City, OK) in Aug 2014
Interview
Had about a five minute interview asked me for my availability, previous job experience, when i can work why i left my other job, what do i plan on doing after graduation eg. continuing education. Boss was very nice got the job on site started three days later. Outside on the patio, very quick and straight forward, basic questions.
The process was a very simple and friendly interview. Very professional for a fast food chain. Would recommend for a high school student or a recent graduate looking to start making money.
Quick and simple. Simply apply online for the location you want to work in. When they are hiring, they call you back rather quick. Go for the interview and it's easy.
