I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Chipotle (Winter Garden, FL) in May 2015
Interview
It was a group interview with the hiring manager. The hiring manager interviewed me & one other person while the other managers interviewed other people. The manager told me & the other person that they liked both of us & that he would pass our names down to get the second interview. I get home, check my email, & it's an email saying that they're unable to offer me a job.
Easy, straight forward questions. Started as a group interview and ended up being offered the job along with 2 other people. It was very casual and no pressure. Interviewer was friendly.

I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2026
Interview
Very brief, was only asked a few questions. I felt a decision about not hiring me was made before the interviewer even sat down. I suspect the interviewer was not accustomed to interviewing and may actually only standing in for a manager that was not working that day
