Hostess Interview

Easy interview

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at The Matador (Portland, OR) in Oct 2025

Interview

Easy. Asked basic questions about hostess requirements. They bragged about how great the hostess was that was leaving and needing to fill her spot ASAP. I have all the experience they need, but dont think i matched their look lol

Easy interview

Application

I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Matador in Oct 2022

Interview

Really awkward and uncomfortable. Felt as though the interview wasn’t very honest and they never let you talk nor care about anything you have to say. Strange interview process and super strange vibe in the place.
