Interviewed Jan 2012 in Livonia, MI (took 1 week)
I decided to apply to Steak n Shake despite all of the negative comments towards it on Glassdoor. I applied through SnagAJob.com and was called two days later for an interview. I was shocked as I had no restaurant experience, but had tons of teaching experience as a summer tutor and dance instructor. I arrived on time; I would have been early, but it was snowing. Once I got there, I had to wait 5 minutes because the manager who was going to interview me had just walked in the door himself. When he called me over, we sat at one of the booths, and he offered me a drink; I declined politely. He proceeded to ask me questions regarding my education, the distance of my drive from my house to the restaurant, and my past employment. He was very nice and personable; I didn't feel out of place. He then asked me questions on what does "hospitality" & the "Golden Rule" mean to me. He then asked me to fill out a background check form and then walked away from the table. He returned, asked if I was done writing, which I was, and said I had been hired, after talking to the owner, who happened to be there that day. He told me he was very impressed with my application, education, and past employment and think I would fit in well with everyone. I was honestly flattered.

Reason for Declining
That same day, I was offered another position at a different company. Since I go to school, I had to choose one or the other. I called Steak n Shake and politely declined the job offer.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview and a Background Check.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Carbondale, IL (took a day)
The interview took about 30 minutes. The hiring manager was not too concerned if I had any previous serving experience. He asked me situational questions and how I would handle them. After the interview he had me fill out all the employment papers and told me when he wanted me to start.

Interviewed Jul 2009 (took a day)
Typical informal restaurant hiring process. Walked in, got an application. Came back to drop off the application, asked to speak with a manager. Managers were busy at that time, so I came back two days later and caught the GM. Got a 20 minute interview talking about my past restaurant experience, was offered a job, and came back for an orientation 2 days later.
