      Host/Hostess Interview

      17 May 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Belleville, IL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cracker Barrel (Belleville, IL) in May 2016

      Interview

      They called almost right away after applying online. There was one interview a few days after and then a follow up interview the next week. Make sure you smile and make eye contact. It was a very short interview both times. They both took less than 10 minutes, but I had to wait a while (I did show up early)

      How would you resolve a customer complaint?

      Quick conversation about my experience - I had none. Ended abruptly when the manager needed to return to the kitchen. I got a call roughly two weeks later. I would not work there again.

      Interview

      Very nice manager who interviewed me and he asked questions that were reasonable for the position I was trying to obtain. I did not end up working at that establishment, but it left a good taste in my mouth.
