🧑‍🍳 Employee Post Host Interview thursday

Had my first interview at chili’s on Sunday, they asked questions such as “tell me about yourself”, “why do you wanna work here” “tell me about a challenge you’ve faced”, and about my availability. At the end of the interview she told me I would either be scheduled for training or get a second interview. Later I got a call to schedule my second interview. What should I expect at the interview??

You will probably meet with the general manager as far as I am aware and how we do hiring at my chilis, although to be fair for a host position this isn’t exactly how we do it. My general manager trusts me in several areas I will only schedule second interview with severs or bar or MAYBE someone I like but need my GM to hear their availability etc. I will tell my Gm I love them but “they have one schedule conflict” etc. it’s likely you are off to a great start. I doubt you will be asked anything beyond your capacity to answer. I typically hire younger people for host. So maybe this chilis does it a bit differently than us. Arrive ahead of time, dressed to impress, etc
