      Anonymous employee
      Grayson, GA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Waffle House (Grayson, GA) in Dec 2025

      Interview

      Initial application was met with a recruiter who went over the job description and talked about my credentials. I then had an interview person interview with 2 division managers (location I applied for was already filled but they still wanted me to interview as I was open to traveling outside of my city). Had to take the management assessment After that, another in person interview with the area manger. Was asked to come in that weekend for the 2 day In Unit the same day of my interview with the area manager. During the in unit shifts, you really get an understanding of how Waffle House operates! HR manager followed up that Monday and explained the steps to the contingent offer (background and drug test) and a formal offer comes next.

      Unit Manager Trainee Interview

      11 Oct 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Vestavia Hills, AL
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Waffle House (Vestavia Hills, AL) in Oct 2023

      Interview

      I found that the interview was an extremely pleasant process. Once it got going, from what I can tell, it’s going to end up being an incredible experience. I still am going this weekend to do the two days of essentially seeing if the job is something that I’ll want to continue forward with the company. I also have to submit to a hair follicle test and background check. None of these will be an issue so I’m not worried about it. I have not received an offer yet. However, that will be what we discussed after these two days. It did not give me the option to add that as an answer to the below question. I’m hopeful that things will go quite well, and I’ll be a great fit with the company.
