I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cracker Barrel (Dothan, AL) in Dec 2013
Interview
Asked a lot about people skills & sales skills. Were very interested in employees being personable. They really want their employees to be friendly and easy to work with. They do not require drug testing but do require a background check.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
In a particularly difficult situation with a customer, how would you handle it?
Very lengthy and tedious, but informative as well. After initial interview with a manager, if you are offered the job, you then move to training which is all online at the beginning and tedious.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cracker Barrel (Glendale, AZ) in Jul 2022
Interview
The interview was great, manager was very nice. Could not guarantee any hours, PT only and only on as needed basis but wanted me to be available nights, weekends and holidays. If hired and store was slow you would be sent home without pay. Not for me. Need some guarantee of some hours.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cracker Barrel (Morrow, GA) in May 2022
Interview
The interview was quick and in-depth, and I enjoyed it. But I heard the manager for that specific department was condescending. The environment was nice, the interview is set up through telephone and is completed at the store location.
