I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Panda Express (Springfield, MO) in Dec 2018
Interview
A short video resume with application, followed by a phone interview with a recruiter. I was then setup with an ACO to do an in person interview and invited to an On the Job Preview. The whole process took about two weeks from first contact to final offer, about three and a half weeks from application to final offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was your biggest challenge stepping into your first management role previously? How did you identify and overcome the challenge?
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Panda Express (Burien, WA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Lengthy conversation with Training Manager and Area Manager. May be invited to working interview with trainer to show off skills. Job offer after if you are acceptable. Area Manager looked like they needed sleep and was very unenthusiastic. The training manager seemed upbeat and eager to interview. Debra Lee is a joke. You will be bombarded with questions, it doesn't matter how you answer, Debra decided when you sat down.

Interview
Good interview process so far. Couple of interview then they do a hands on w lariat ion in store. After that they do final interview with Regional operations manager. It seems like a lot but they seem to want only top talent.
