I took in my application in person and was able to talk to the General Manager. I was right out of high school and 17 so she informed me that I wouldn't be able to apply to a server position until I turned 18 because of alcohol laws. We had a good brief conversation and she told me they'd call me about an interview. I interviewed about a week later in person with a supervisor who asked me behavioral questions and situational questions. See example below. I was also given a Briggs-Meyer personality test. I was called back a week later and offered a Hostess position with the opportunity to move to server when I turned 18. Overall, it was a pleasant and quick hiring process.

I applied online and got a call a few weeks later. When I went in for the interview I wasn't asked any real questions. I was interviewed right at a table in the restaurant. The whole process was friendly and quick.
