I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Panera Bread
Interview
The process was super casual in the sense that the manager made me feel at ease, considering it was my first job, and asked a lot about my competency in dealing with everyday customers. 1 round of interview, and the turnaround was about 2 weeks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Scenarios for handling everyday customers. This goes beyond just helping customers with orders; it goes into situations like allergy information and how to calm customers down.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Panera Bread (Huntington Beach, CA) in Jun 2014
Interview
Post 1st interview at Seal Beach, CA, I was given a 2nd interview at my desired location-Main Street at Huntington Beach. Manager Casey was not at all what I expected: sincerely kind and incredibly easy to talk to. Asked me 'what's your fave movie?' and 'have you ever had a confrontation with co-workers?'. Easy questions and an easy-to-talk-to manager. Also got a free drink from a warm cashier. Great atmosphere.
The only flaw? Being told to wait a few days for a call, to see if I make it to a 3rd interview. Inconvenient and crazy!
