Interviewed Jan 2010 in Strawberry Plains, TN (took 1+ week)
The initial greet is easy. The assistant manager does the process and she may be new, but she isn't a hardened woman. Honestly, just be confident, but not cocky. They are short staffed, though, so it isn't that hard.
Honestly, at first you get a small section, but as soon as you have been there a week, you will have to put the big girl panties on.

Negotiation Details
Absolutely nothing. She is a tight belt. No extra money, no extra benefits from her.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview, an IQ/Intelligence Test, a Skills Test, a Personality Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took a day)
I applied to 2 different stores for this company. The first time I applied the kitchen manager was friends with someone I knew. He skipped skipped the interview completely which I thought was strange, and I started working there immediately. After the management at the store laid me off I worked at another one. This time both the kitchen manager and the proprietor interviewed me. The only "challenge" question that they asked was Why do you want to work for the company? and I told them to help them as much as possible and I got the job.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Palm Bay, FL (took a day)
I applied online and brought a copy of my application to my interview. The employer asked some basic interview questions. He then asked me what experience I had to offer. After that he dismissed me. He called me later that evening and offered me the job! It is a good job and an easy interview.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
There was no negotiation phase. The employer told me the hours and what I would get paid. There was no room to change and ask for what I wanted. They are strict on their budget.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in San Marcos, TX (took 3 days)
Pretty standard for a server job. You probably won't get hired if you don't have previous server experience from a decent restaurant. I had 3 brief interviews with each manager then took a personality/IQ test that was pretty easy (simple math, little bit of Algebra and common sense type questions).
