I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at IHOP (Portland, OR) in Oct 2012
Interview
Asked about previous server experience. Am I available to work 24 hours a day because IHOP is open 24 hours a day. They asked where else I worked. They asked me to describe a difficult situation I faced while serving and how did I handle it. Of course i it involved a customer becoming angry. I talked about how I defused the customers anger level by agreeing with his complaints and I would take immediate action to resolve the complaint.
Very easy going and informative managers were nice and explained the process thoroughly I was also hired on the spot :) can’t wait to start serving At my favorite breakfast spot!!
Quick and friendly. Interviewer was very to the point. Was hired on the spot. They were very accommodating to my schedule. A fun environment to work in if you like fast paced
