I walked in to inquire about open positions. They had me fill out an application online. After completing the online application I had 3 separate interviews. The first 2 were with 2 assistant managers and the final one was with the Manager. I was offered the position at the end of the last interview. The entire process was about 3 hours long.
Very relaxing interview, it is required that you have previous experience in the hospitality industry before coming in to interview. Since I had already worked in the industry I was able to talk about how many tables I could handle and how much sales expected to have on any given night. I was asked what I thought every server needed to do to be successful. That is a pretty common question. 9 out of 10 managers want you to say something like a good attitude or a nice smile.

Question 1
Most difficult question is: where do you see yourself in ten years? It's difficult because even the manager knows you won't be with them, yet you feel obligated to say you will be there.
I applied online. I interviewed at Applebee's (Morristown, TN) in Aug 2022
Interview
I applied online and was invited to interview. I scheduled a time that was convenient for me online as well. The interviewer was very welcoming, friendly, and professional. A great experience overall.

Question 1
What was my prior experience, what would I do in certain situations, etc.
real and fun that had to do with talking about past experiences and that was all. Also a few other things like memorizing the menu and getting familiar with spots in the restaurant.
