I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Carelli's (Boulder, CO) in July 2014
Interview
I applied through a craigslist add, got a phone call the next day to come and interview. I came in and was asked very 4 basic questions. They then asked me to come in that night for a work interview aka free labor.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The one notable question was "what is the primary grape in chianti?"
The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Carelli's in Aug 2010
Interview
Submitted my resume through online posting. Received a call a few days later asking me to come in for an interview with the owner. Interview only lasted 5-10 minutes. Asked about how many years of experience I had and about my Italian wine knowledge. Hint: know the grapes in Chianti! I was called the next day to come in for a work interview- which meant shadowing a server, in order to get a feel for my experience and how I got along with other employees.
