I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Cheesecake Factory (Orland Park, IL) in Dec 2016
Interview
The interview was brief, it only lasted about 5-8mins. Hiring manager was friendly and the conversation flowed well. The shortness of interview could have been due to the busy atmosphere and the other 11 candidates the manager said they were interviewing for various positions.
Good and brief. The interview lasted a couple of minutes it went well but there was no response to whether I got a job or not. The manager was very nice

I applied in-person. I interviewed at The Cheesecake Factory (Glendale, WI) in Mar 2026
Interview
You initially interview with an assistant manager or something. It is a rather easy interview but then they say they will get back to you about setting up a second interview and they never do. Felt like the were giving me the run-around. Not professional.

Interview
Very easy interview process. I sat down with one of the shift managers and we went over job duties, my experience and availability. They mostly ask about reliability and availability.
