haven't gone through one in 32 years
Explain more about the job.
not making people wait 30 minutes for an interview. if you schedule the time you should be prepared.
I went thru 3 interviews plus my sister talking to them to get me a job. I applied for prep. Thai didn't think I had wat it took to b prep considering I had zero kitchen experience. I ended up knowing all 3 cooking station gu and prep in less then a yr at applebees
Not having a fake manager hiring only hot women because she's lesbian and keeping those employees when they don't contribute as a team or at all they're lazy!
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Geneal Manager needs to be more visible out on the floor to head off any problems before they start and not always in the office
Lack of compitent management, putting a good face when higher ups are in building.
The management team at my applebee's is a joke. they get paid to bully.
By taking care of good employees which interns takes care of good customers which interns makes a company thrive
Managers aren't helping ensure that staff and guest are taken care of

Nothing. Let's keep up the good work.
