I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Applebee's in Feb 2012
Interview
It began with calls to corporate and went through that vetting process. I then went on to talk to the area manager one on one. They had "forgotten" to give me the written tests, and after taking them I was declined the offer because I did the test too fast. The area manager said that all the answers were right, but I had taken the test to fast, and that "raises flags" apparently. When I asked what that ment, she said didn't know exactly and that all gets handed down from corporate
I guess they are looking for stupid people to fill their middle management positions,. It's kinda of hilarious because it was the last job that I would have wanted (the pay seemed pretty good though)
If you are absolutely average in every way, Applebee's may be the place for you!
Written test, covers yearly cost analysis with multiple choice, pretty easy if you understand profit and loss. Questions like.... if X% of year one budget is "value" and X% of value is $12,498. Then calculate the projection of profits for the fourth quarter of next year
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Applebee's (Everett, WA)
Interview
Basic. There isn’t too much to say about this. It was generic general questions about my skills. As I’ve said, not too much to say. But this screen is asking me to say more. I haven’t advice to give.
The process was quick and covered what you would expect to hear during an interview. Sales, leadership, training, what things were expected from the higher ups, etc. There was only one interview.
