BJ's Restaurants Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details Apply online, take tests and follow up with a phone call ( Mon-Thurs 2-4pm)

Interview Details The online application takes some time. It's some crazy IQ test, and some multiple choice questions that are set up to rate your personality in some weird way.

Interview Details It was a series of several online profiles and questionnaires that asked you everything from personal information to character and problem solving abilities. Overall, the first half of the online portion of the interview is what you would generally expect; however, the second portion seemed very unusual, especially for the job. It was a timed multiple choice test that required everything from math skills to higher level thinking.

Interview Details Filled out online application, followed up with them a couple weeks later (with resume on hand and business attire),this location held open interviews Mon-Tue (2-4 PM) .Consists of 3 basic interviews with floor managers.

Interview Details Got a phone call then had 3 extremely basic interviews. not really interviews just more like small talk, one time with each manager. Seemed like I was hired right once I got the phone call.

Negotiation Details – Didnt negotiate just took the job

Interview Details Took a test online, then went up to the restaurant because I didn't want to just be a 'submitted app'. That worked for me! I met with the manager that day (albeit briefly) and then SILENCE. I didn't hear from them for 3-4 weeks. Just when I thought they'd forgotten about me, I got a call. I went in the next day, met with the GM and was hired on the spot. Training began a week later. Easy.

Interview Details 2 interviews. 1 if you've got a slew of experience. They don't hire people to serve who have no serving experience as the requirements for a server here are much higher than for other similarly priced restaurants.

LOTS of paperwork. Bring a signature stamp, you'll wish you had one. At least 15-20 signatures.

Lots of culture questions. Very basic, though. They want people who make the restaurant happier, not more complain-y.

Negotiation Details – No Negotiation phase.

Interview Details *TIP* A referral will get your foot in the door! :)

Interview Process: Consisted of three interviews. Two floor managers and then the GM. There's a sheet of questions they ask directly from it. First two managers pretty much asked me the same things. Experience? Sales? Steps to service? then finally the interview with the GM after he made me wait 30 minutes lol, asked me "Why BJ's?" and "Why you?"

Hiring Process: Filled out application online. Assessment test. Went in to Bj's to drop my resume and have manager pull out application. Asked to come back for an interview. Hired. Training. Took a while because the next training seminar was a month after. in most cases its the week or two after. I just had an unusual circumstance. Tons of paperwork to fill out because Bj's is entirely corporate-based. GOLDEN STANDARD is strongly emphasized.

Interview Details The interview process was really quick. I applied on Friday night, got called Monday afternoon, had an interview for Tuesday morning with the Take-out manager, then they asked me to come back to meet two other managers, and I got offered the job right on the spot. The only annoying thing is that when you are hired, they tell you that you are coming for an orientation but really it's filling out a lot of paperwork.

Negotiation Details – No Negotiation - they gave me the salary I was asking for.
