I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Chipotle (Roseville, CA) in Mar 2015
Interview
I applied for the job online then got a call from the manager about two weeks later asking if I was available for a group interview the following day. The interview was about an hour before the store opened, so we all sat in the lobby. The group interview consisted of two other people, which I was happy with because I was expecting a larger group. The group interview took about 15 minutes and once done the manager said he will be calling us shortly after. About three hours later I got a call for a second interview. This interview lasted about thirty minutes and was one on one.
Easy, straight forward questions. Started as a group interview and ended up being offered the job along with 2 other people. It was very casual and no pressure. Interviewer was friendly.

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
