I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Jimmy John's (Chandler, AZ) in Aug 2012
Interview
I saw an ad for an open-interview opportunity as a Delivery Driver position on Craig's List for Jimmy John's (JJ) Gourmet Sandwiches. Before arriving to the open interview, I had to fill out my application, which was a simple task. Upon arrival, I sat down at a table and waited for two JJ managers to sit down in front of me and conduct the interview, as they were interviewing others before me. Once the interview started I was asked basic questions, such as where I had worked before (this was my first job though, so that was a short topic), what I was currently doing in my life (school, other work, etc.), how I heard about Jimmy John's and what I thought of it, etc. My interview was very basic and only last about 8-10 minutes before they told me that they would be contacting me either later that night or the next day if they wanted to hire me. Later that night I was called and offered the job (yay!).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were honestly no difficult or unexpected questions. The only question that might be quasi-challenging for others that I was asked was "what do you know about Jimmy John's and its history". Before going to the interview that day I took a quick peak at Wikipedia to do some background research, which was a very quick, simple task on its own. I advise anyone applying to any type of work to know something regarding that business' background. It looks more impressive and shows that you're actually interested in the business and what it has to offer.
Thorough and friendly interview process, although you won't get the job if you can't give the same exact hours every single week. They ask basic questions and seek to find if you're able to work consistently as well as if you're not a psychopath. My experience in an interview was very professional and friendly
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Jimmy John's (McMinnville, OR) in Dec 2023
Interview
Interview composed of two steps: An over-the-phone interview and an in-person interview. Both were incredibly simple and asked basic interview questions such as "why do you want to work for us?".

Interview
They did not do too much of an interview. They had the basic questions they would ask, and do a background check. As long as you pass the background check then you will get hired.
