I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at IHOP (Weatherford, TX) in May 2014
Interview
Very difficult to get a hold of anyone in the first place, and when i finally did get an interview, they refused to look me in the eyes when they spoke. It was very unprofessional and honestly should have been a red flag for me...
Basic and brief. I dressed up a bit, she seemed to like that. They're always desperate for workers so it's pretty easy to do well in the interview. You must on Christmas though.

Question 1
General experience questions. We basically went over the application. A bit more in depth.
Easy. Helps if you already have experience. I was hired on the spot. Just go in there with confidence, you’ll be fine. Good luck with your job hunting and I hope you land that job!!
The interview process was very relaxed and i had a 2-part interview process. I spoke with the store manager and the district manager. They were very nice and open minded about me not having experience and they were very detailed about the position.
