I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chipotle (Port St Lucie, FL) in Mar 2014
Interview
I applied online, and the next day I receive an email saying they wanted to interview me in a job fair. That was a 1:1 interview at first. A couple of hours pass and they called me for a second interview to meet the crew. Basically they all ask the same questions like what do you like, what don't you like, why Chipotle , etc. It was a group interview including 2 other candidate. After meeting almost all the crew, the manager came and asked us who were were. We answered and he said thank you that's all I needed to know, gave us a handshake and we left. 2 weeks has pass and I haven't heard from them, so I called them. They told me if they haven't called me that's because I probably didn't get the job but wait a couple of days till one week for their call and if nothing happened, I didn't get it. I'm pretty sure I didn't make it to the 3rd interview.

There wasn't any difficult questions for me because I was prepared.
I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Bixby Knolls, CA) in Jul 2026
Interview
The interview was pretty easy, but I had to wait 30 to 40 minutes after my interview was scheduled to be interviewed. Inside the Chipotle, it was extremely hot and really uncomfortable, but other than that, the interview was pretty easy. But I haven’t heard back, as I was supposed to get a call on Sunday.

Question 1
They mainly asked me for my availability throughout the week, if I’m able to work weekends, what my good and bad qualities were, and that’s pretty much it and hobbies.
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.
