I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Darden (Orlando, FL) in Mar 2013
Interview
The interview process was pretty straight forward – two phone interviews, a personality/aptitude test and then a on-site interview. The in person interview was about 6 hours starting at 10am and ending at 4pm. I had one-on-one sessions with 5 different interviewers that currently held similar roles at Daren.
Most of the questions revolved around my background and questions about their restaurants current positioning.

Question 1
Which of our restaurants in targeting the wrong audience and how would you fix that?
Began with phone screening and then was invited to interview on-site with a full day of interviews. Interviewed with Brand Managers and directors. Was asked behavioral questions, all were expected and not very difficult.

Behavioral questions were expected. Interviewers were very down-to-earth and easy to talk to. No case questions.
