I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chipotle (Cincinnati, OH) in Feb 2015
Interview
They called me 45 minutes after putting my application in. After the first interview with both the store managers i had to comeback a week later to do an interview with the GM after the interview was finished she told me to come back 3 days later to do a crew interview. They said they would call me after the crew interview, they never did they just email me saying that they didn't have a position available. This was a complete waste of time and gas money. Don't bother applying in my opinion.
Easy, straight forward questions. Started as a group interview and ended up being offered the job along with 2 other people. It was very casual and no pressure. Interviewer was friendly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain a time when you handled an upset customer?
Asked questions about what positions work best for you, why you want to work there, what makes you a good fit there, where you see yourself in 5 years. Very simple and open to answer any questions I had
I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2026
Interview
Very brief, was only asked a few questions. I felt a decision about not hiring me was made before the interviewer even sat down. I suspect the interviewer was not accustomed to interviewing and may actually only standing in for a manager that was not working that day
