I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Pizza Hut (Allegan, MI) in Nov 2015
Interview
She started with, I see you are applying for the General Manager Position, Tell me about yourself. The Interview was well done in a traditional format and the General Manager did a fantastic job. My issue was that I was interviewed by the General Manager of the location I was applying for... Hmmmm that made no sense so I had to ask "You are so passionate about your job as general manager here, why on earth are you leaving". Well guess what,,she was NOT leaving, there was no General manager position open even though the job posting was just placed two days prior. Thinking I was being interviewed for the general manager position it was soon disclosed that I would be working as a cook working my way through all the stages and some day I MAY Advance to a general manager position. I HAVE TO ASK MYSELF. Why would Pizza Hut stoop to dishonest tactics to get employees. The have a proven success record, they are #1 in the Pizza industry and their growth is unmatched. What is going on?? If they are ashamed to advertise for a Cook position then they need to figure out why, don't risk your reputation to get a cook and don't lose a great manager by posting jobs that don't exist. It

Interview
I was called a few days before to come in to meet the district manager of the 46 chain franchise out here in Las Vegas. I bought an outfit. I had some excellent questions to ask, and showed up 10 minutes early.... Where the district manager was in the lobby interviewing with someone else dressed casually. I was told to come in through the back door by the store manager of the store I thought I was applying to. Afterwards I started my meeting with the district manager ; he inquired about experience as a store manager, he then began to explain that for this 46 chain franchise, they do not hire general managers directly from outside. They must go through his method of training; which is you start out as an employee making $8.25, get promoted to lead and make $9, then assistant $11 then if they believe you're ready RGM, over a strict 1 year and a half training requirement. He mentioned that with this method he turned 8 stores around! Unfortunately working as a store manager in the pizza business, I didn't think that time frame was good for me and my experience so I declined.
It was very brief. I was already known in the company so they didn't need to learn much about me. They just asked the basics. We discussed pay rates and bonuses and discussed the restaurant that was opening.

Interview
It was a fine and extensive interview process as you'd expect. The training was long and the management abuse their power. They watch over your back and nag you constantly about your work. It's very stressful and fast paced
