Interviewed Jan 2012 (took a day)
Owner was very rude and treated me like I was stupid. After every answer I gave him he wouldn't say anything for a minute, then say, "k". I was nice, outgoing, and gave great answers to everything.

Interviewed Apr 2012 (took a day)
I applied online then I called and spoke to the manager and told her I had applied online. She then told me that she had seen my application and had already planned to call me, she gave me an interview time for the next day. I went in for my interview and we sat down at a table. She had a paper that she was reading questions from (it was the usual customer service questions.) and then she said she liked me and offered me the job on the spot.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
I declined the offer because she told me they only pay $8.00 an hour, you have to memorize all the mixtures and sing when people give you tips and I just thought that getting $8.00 an hour wasn't worth it and at the time I had a higher paying job and I wasn't going to replace it with a lower paying job.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 1+ week)
I applied online and was emailed to schedule a phone interview within a few days. The phone interview was extremely short (only a few minutes), discussing my background and availability. A couple days after that, I was emailed with a job opportunity. Overall, if you have a positive attitude and strong customer service skills, it is a fairly easy job to get.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Avondale, AZ (took a day)
The manager of the company had asked me for my previous experience, and my availability. It was very short, and didn't sound promising.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took a day)
Sat in the store, next to the customers in line, which was a weird place for an interview. Then the manager finally came out, we all said where we were from and our names. They asked some typical questions and everyone went around and gave their answers. Then we formed three groups of three and sang a song of our choice from the sheet they gave us, and then one song alone. It's not that terrible if you have fun with it. They called a few days later and asked if I would be in the area for Thanksgiving and Christmas (I live on campus, which is closed during these times so I am not), so that is the last I heard from them.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Richmond, VA (took 2 days)
I applied online and 2 days later I got an email from a manager to ask me when we could schedule an interview so I scheduled it for the next day at 5:30. He explained and talked more than interviewed me but asked me Why I wanted to work there and if i could sing. He then asked me to sing twinkle twinkle little star.Which was kind of awkard since i wasn't expecting to sing at all. He told me my voice was good and also asked me "would I be able to sing alone if other team members were to be busy." lets just say I hesitated too long. But overall it was short and simple. But he did talk alot. He was kind of funny and I noticed he was from Korea cause he spoke somewhat a little bit of english. but I could understand him well.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Be prepared to sing a little because eventually its gonna come up as you will sing for tips Be realxed, confident and you should get the job. and also know that theres more to just scooping icecream and getting tips. Don't expect that thats all your going to be doing. Theres just more to it.

The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.
