      Area Manager Interview

      Sep 14, 2012
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Corpus Christi, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Whataburger (Corpus Christi, TX) in Aug 2012

      Interview

      After applying for the position on their company website, I receive a vague email from their corporate office that they are interested in talking to me about the opportunity. I did not get a follow up from them until I initiated contact.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      After interviewing with the recruiter via phone, I was informed that I would be talking to another manager. Over a week has passed, so I again followed up with the recruiter and she advised me that he was on vacation and would touch base with me when he returns. During that time, my aunt and grandfather had passed away so we were making arrangements to attend. I get a call from the recruiter and mentioned that I could not schedule a meeting due to family obligations. She was unsympathetic and unprofessional in my conversation with her. For an organization that values their staff and commitment to excellence, they treat their talent poorly thus it is safe to say that I would not recommend them to my friends/colleagues.

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Whataburger (Pensacola, FL) in Mar 2020

      Interview

      Got a call. Asked if I can make down to Florida in 3 days for a panel interview. It was a horrible experience. It was 7 of them and only two of them were actually nice. The others were in a “click” and it felt more like the movie mean girls. They would stare and then begin to whisper to each other. This company I’m sure will lose a lot of good talent and not hire good talent as they set the tone from the very beginning. To top it off they’ve never contacted me back. However I did not expect nothing less from them. Poor management from recruiters up to directors.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Whataburger (San Antonio, TX) in Jan 2019

      Interview

      Started the process in the beginning of December 2018. Two phone screens, was flown out to McAllen Texas for an interview with and Regional and a Director of Operations. Then a panel interview was set up after a week went by in San Antonio. Was supposed to be 5 people to do the panel and turned out to be almost 20 in the room. In between the recruiters gave false timelines for follow up and call backs. After going through the process and learning more about the leadership at least for this particular market and I actually glad that we did not move forward with the process
