I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Panera Bread
Interview
Short yet straight forward. Several questions were asked about previous work history and how well I worked with others, how I performed under pressure and responded to a difficult situations. The whole process, application submission and interview, took about a week with no hiccups to speak of which is saying a lot considering I was a part of a grand opening.
