I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Whataburger in Feb 2011
Interview
I got the application from a friend who had already applied and proceeded to fill it out and turn it it. The General Area Manager was not there, but he called me the following Monday afternoon (I had turned in the application on a Saturday). I interviewed on Wednesday afternoon and filled out the official paperwork on Friday. All in all, it was a very good experience. I was offered a drink and the workers were kind. The general manager took his time and explained everything in detail to me. The best advice I could give a candidate would be to lay all your cards on the table and they really will work with you. Don't be afraid to let them know you won't work ridiculous hours or that your weekends are just that; yours.
Very quick and the interviewer is friendly, welcoming and patience. The process is easy and they walk you through it. You get to answer questions for clarity and they do provide you with the clarity needed
the interview process is very easy. Just dress like a normal person and you should be fine as long as you look hygienic. Not having a criminal record is a given as well.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have prior experience in the fast food industry?
Very nice, took me aside and interviewed me and a follow-up phone call. Was very simple and nice process, which also checked over my qualifications. Would definitely recommend other companies to implement this strategy.
