I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chipotle (Medford, MA) in Jun 2014
Interview
Interview was very fast paced with the Restaurateur, few difficult questions asked, mostly about flexibility and earnestness. Frankly offered me the going rate salary, discussion was easy-going and casual. Interview was more about personality than any skills or knowledge going in.

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
