Interview
I applied in person. Got a call later the same day to set up first interview for the next day. The first interview was with an assistant general manager. Interview went well and I was scheduled for the second interview. The second interview was set for the following week. The second interview was with the other assistant general manager. I was told there were two other candidates and I would hear back the next day. The next day I was offered the position pending drug screen and background check. I did the drug screen and the background was done in one week. Entire process took two weeks.

Question 1
Why should they chose you rather than the other candidates?
It was a super chill interview, they definitely used the STAR method and asked typical questions, including about how to deal with a rude guest, and how you deal with a rude or uncomfortable coworker.
