I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Five Guys (Centreville, VA) in June 2012
Interview
It was a laid back interview. Just asked me what I would expect walking into a restaurant and what they want for that restaurant. Asked me how i would deal with an angry customer. What benefit I could be to them. Describe your personality.
Trial shift for 2 hours. Shown around various parts of resturant. Shown how to clean the resturant and how to make the food, focusing on preparing and dressing the burgers.
Interviewer asked me basic questions about myself. She then talked about her experience working in the industry. The interview lasted about 15 minutes and was easy. Basically a get to know you type of interview.
A telephone call- asking if you handle pressure well and an example. Then asks the previous skills you bring from ur previous job, and what makes you stand out. Then an inperson interview with one question about customer service, and a 30 minute ‘day in the life’ where u cut some peppers and jalapenos
