I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Panera Bread (Pittsburgh, PA) in Mar 2015
Interview
Two of the same interviews from district manager and regional manager. They administered a background/credit check and a drug test. They are interested in your personal life to make sure you aren't someone with short term intentions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you handle an employee who has continually not listened to you
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Panera Bread (Billerica, MA) in Mar 2019
Interview
it was mainly a series of what ifs, explain a time when, how would you handle, questions. The interviewer was not personable and she was more concerned with placing me in a store I did not apply for.
I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Panera Bread (The Woodlands, TX) in May 2015
Interview
The interview went very smoothly, the hiring manager was eager to answer any questions and ready to hire before I'd even had the 2nd interview. I was told immediately that my "dressing for success" definitely called for brownie points. Most people showed up in shorts and t-shirts for an interview, which is a little too leisurely even if it is only a restaurant job.
