Interviewed Jun 2010 in New York, NY (took a day)
The interview was in front of a panel of GMs and DMs. There were a series of select questions in which based on your answer would generate follow up questions. The interviews can be tough and is used to validate your experience and knowledge. You are then given feedback after a couple of days regardless if you didnt the position.

Interviewed Feb 2007 in Madison Heights, MI (took 2 weeks)
The interview lasted only a few minutes at the district manager level. Based on my experience you are sized up based mostly on appearance, ethnicity and ability to answer some, not very probing, questions. Overall impression is a result based employment status with very little personal development. Sink or swim type of training program. I was very successful with the company but you will need to bring a lot of experience in motivating employees and managing operations to be successful as the company is very good at telling you what needs to be done but not good at all when telling you how to get it done.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
They will come across as not willing to negotiate but depending on who you talk to and how much they like you, there is definitely room to negotiate everything but health care.
Other Details
I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Personality Test, a Drug Test and a Background Check.
