I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Burger King (Tallahassee, FL) in Feb 2012
Interview
I went to a job fair. I'd been to all the potential employers. I was hungry and ready to go. I didn't want to just give up and give in to my physical hunger and so decided to go to one more booth. I didn't recognize that it was Burger King because the d/b/a name was advertised. As I walked passed I was asked if I had supervisory skills and upon answering yes, I was given an application different than the application which I saw most other people around me had. I completed the application turned it in. I was asked if I had a minute to talk. Of course I said yes. I was interviewed at that time by the District Manager who hired me on the spot. I completed an on line assessment and on board enrollment the same day. I went to the New Hire Orientation about a week later. The following week I went to training and 6 weeks later began working as a Manager.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
How do I feel that I will be an asset to the business?
Simple and quick. They are looking for mature individuals who are dependable and do not call in. Show leadership skills to a certain extent and ability to work with the team as a whole.
Pretty easy, making sure it's clear that managerial experience in the food industry.
Don't be afraid to voice concerns. Control the interview and make sure your demands are met. It's fast food so don't be a pushover
Spoke briefly with the district manager who covered about 5 or 6 stores in the arra and once he had approved, he sent me on to Sonia the general manager of the S Shields location for a more specific set of questions.
