I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Red Lobster (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2023
Interview
Asked questions about previous hosting experience , can you stand for periods of time, have you served or been a server are you allergic to fish? Can you work by yourself
It was rather intuitive. They ask about your work experience and then proceed to ask about the hardest moments in your working portfolio and how you overcame it. Be steadfast and deliberate with your responses.
Very easy process the manager was really nice and very direct about the duties the job requires. I also really liked the environment. The GM also comes to interview you as well.
The manager asked basic questions about customer service experience. I was called to come in for an in person interview. I was asked about my restaurant experience but had none and was till offered job.
