I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Cinemark (Danville, CA) in Oct 2011
Interview
Came in and sat down with one of the managers who asked me a bunch of random questions that didn't seem to matter. It seemed like he was just trying to make sure that I was a likeable person and that he wanted to make sure that I could communicate effectively to customers. Later he told me I sucked at interviewing and that I was only hired because of my reference who was currently working there.
Pretty basic questions. What are your hours, experience, etc. They then talked about the positions.Just pretty much look clean,show up on time, and ask questions at the end to gain a spot.
The interview process was easy going. My interviewer was very polite. The questions that were asked were very general, mostly about availability. You are trained on the job for what you need to know afterwards.
Required Clothing: Business Casual
The interview was super easy and done solo—no group interview at all. I got hired on the spot, which was a nice surprise. The whole process was quick, smooth, and completely stress-free from start to finish.
