I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Panera Bread (Richardson, TX) in Aug 2013
Interview
For me it was a group interview; there was one other person who was being interviewed at the same time. I have seen interviews with up to 6 people at once.
The interview process was rather casual. You do not have to worry about complex questions, they just want to get to know you better.
It is an incredibly entry-leveled job, nothing too complex.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What are some of your hobbies?
What do you like to do outside of work?
Have you ever worked in the food or any other type of service industry before?
