I applied online. I interviewed at OIive Garden (Bloomington, MN) in Mar 2025
Interview
There were two interviews, a preliminary one where they ask why you want the job, what your experience is, etc. and then a second one with the main hiring manager. Both interviews were pretty straightforward and only lasted about 15-20 minutes each.
easy it was slit into three days, general questions asked, and took about a week to get a call back, met with three seperate managers before getting hired, but i did apply online first and got the interview instantly
I applied online. I interviewed at OIive Garden (San Luis Obispo, CA)
Interview
To set up the interview, it was an automated interview scheduling and sent reminders. It was an in person interview with the general manager, who was very friendly and seemed passionate about his job. I was asked some basic restaurant server questions. I was also told how shifts work which was much appreciated.
Two step process involving night managers and general manager. Easy to talk to and accommodate reasonable needs. Main focus was on the ability to work quickly while still providing great and meaningful service to customers. Great group of managers that are friendly and allow you the opportunity of having a flexible schedule.
