I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Chipotle (Rowland Heights, CA) in June 2015
Interview
After applying online, I received an email saying that I had an interview about 3 days from then. I went to the interview and when i arrived there, me along with about 6 other people went through a group interview being asked standard questions. I then got a second interview which happened to be another group interview but with only 2 more people, and the last interview was ANOTHER group interview with about 4 other people. The fact that I had to go through 3 group interviews and study packets they gave me for the interviews made me think that they're doing a little too much as for a fast food restaurant goes. I guess they really want people that look dedicated and willing to go the extra mile.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name one thing you think would be something that you won't like about Chipotle if you do get hired.
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.

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
