The Henry interview questions

Got an email saying I could interview between 2 and 4 PM, so I show up at ten after two. Check in with the hostess, fill out a little sip and wait. Normally, in my experience, they'll offer a water/coke/etc., didn't happen here. It's whatever though, so I sit there and wait for about forty five minutes or so, then ask the hostess if I'll be seen soon. She says she doesn't know, all the while they're breezing through FOH interviews. So I sit back down and wait about another half hour, all the while getting increasingly annoyed. Finally after sitting there for an hour and twenty minutes I said screw it, had the hostess validate my parking and left. Clearly they don't respect prospective employees' time, so I wonder what it's like for actual employees. Absolutely ridiculous.

After your initial meet and greet, if they are interest in you they will ask you to come in for a “staj”, where you follow a server for about an hour and talk with the manager again. It allows you to get a feel for the restaurant and for them to get a feel of you. I really liked this “staj” idea. It really lets both parties make an assessment before a commitment. Then if all goes well with that, they will set you up with an orientation time and they will go over everything about the restaurant then. Following that there are at least seven training days.
