The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Panera Bread (Lithonia, GA)
Interview
Very easy process. Met with three different managers where we discussed my history as it relates to Catering. They explained many of the duties that were related to Catering. Managers were personable and easy to speak with
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Are you prepared to prepare and schedule deliveries.
There were 3 interviews total. A 20 minute call with a recruiter, a 45 minute interview with multiple managers, and a 1 hour interview with multiple managers and a mock call. The first real interview was like an ordinary interview with generic questions and why Panera. The final interview was pretty similar questions as the first one but you do a mock call to start the interview and receive feedback throughout the interview.
I applied online. I interviewed at Panera Bread (West Des Moines, IA) in Jan 2022
Interview
First, you get set up with a quick phone interview with someone in their Cedar Rapids office.
If they like you, you will choose which store(s) you want to work at and will be contacted by the store manager.
A proper sit-down interview will be conducted with either the General Manager or their Assistant Managers.
It was a fairly easy interview, general questions you would expect at retail jobs. If you are interviewing you pretty much have the job unless you really mess up at the interview.
