I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Chipotle (Pasadena, CA) in May 2014
Interview
Attended the first interview, was asked questions like what I could bring to the team, why I am a good fit for Chipotle, and what I new about the company itself. Second interview was similar, but they gave us a quick tour of the restaurant.

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
I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (West Hartford, CT) in May 2026
Interview
I scheduled an interview, but when I arrived the first time the manager was not there, so I had to reschedule. At the second interview, I waited about 10–15 minutes before the manager was ready. The interview itself was short, around 10 minutes, and mostly consisted of behavioral questions read from a sheet. Overall, the process felt disorganized and not very personal, but the questions were straightforward.
