I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Surfas Culinary District (Culver City, CA) in Feb 2011
Interview
I met with the manager/owners. An elderly man and his wife. They seamed very nice at first, but as they started asking questions, I got the feeling they were a bit paranoid, and had no real training in business etiquette or legal aspects of management.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: If your drawer is short at the end of the day, will you pay back the money you owe us?
Q: We know this is an unusual question, but how old are you?
