I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Chipotle in Apr 2018
Interview
Group interview - they look for the 13 characteristics, all of which cannot be taught and want to see if you fit in with the group - I did talk with the general manager and apprentice at the time for a short while. Majority of the interview was with the crew members/your peers
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a weakness of yours?
Why do you want to work here?
Do you have any experience?
Called into office to discuss my resume and career background and talked about skillset and how I could contribute to the team with that skill set. I thought it was a nice interview and we got to know each other.

Question 1
Describe why you would be a good fit for this role?
Came in person, it only took a few minutes. Took a little while to hear back, the interviewer was nice and straight to the point. Very simple and straightforward process.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Chipotle (Costa Mesa, CA) in June 2025
Interview
You get screened by AI first, then they give u time slots for availability. You pick from one and then they'll email you if they decide to interview you or not. It feels a bit impersonal, and I didn't mind it too much but it felt super detatched.
