J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Panera Bread en déc. 2012
Entretien
I applied online and was not expecting a phone call because I do not have any food experience. All my experience has been in office or cosmetics settings. I got a call 2 days after applying and told me to come in for an interview. I went in and a bit earlier than my given time. Both the managers who interviewed me were relaxed and very nice. No hard questions and got the offer on the spot. I went with a resume and he just looked over it but did not worry about it much. He asked about my availability and I told him as a college student this is my availability. Besides that nothing hard.
Why panera?
I said: I have never worked in a face paced environment and would like to experience that.
What is your availability?

The process was super casual in the sense that the manager made me feel at ease, considering it was my first job, and asked a lot about my competency in dealing with everyday customers. 1 round of interview, and the turnaround was about 2 weeks.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Scenarios for handling everyday customers. This goes beyond just helping customers with orders; it goes into situations like allergy information and how to calm customers down.
good questions and nice environment for people that applies to all he positions. there is not discrimination of race, sexuality or gender in any restaurant. it as a very fast hiring process. not complicated applications or interviews.

Post 1st interview at Seal Beach, CA, I was given a 2nd interview at my desired location-Main Street at Huntington Beach. Manager Casey was not at all what I expected: sincerely kind and incredibly easy to talk to. Asked me 'what's your fave movie?' and 'have you ever had a confrontation with co-workers?'. Easy questions and an easy-to-talk-to manager. Also got a free drink from a warm cashier. Great atmosphere.
The only flaw? Being told to wait a few days for a call, to see if I make it to a 3rd interview. Inconvenient and crazy!
