      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Denny's (Pleasant Hills, PA) in Aug 2012

      Interview

      Was called to come into an interview, set up a date for it. Had the interview, was interviewed by a MIT, then the general manager after. Took about an hour, with a whole bunch of questions about myself and my character. People were initially nice to me then when you got to know the workers you saw how other people were treated

      The interview went better than I expected. She asked important questions pertaining to my position. And I answered as honestly. Very satisfied. I was even offered a beverage. I felt the questions were fair and not intrusive. Or hard. I understood that customers satisfaction is a must.
