I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Chipotle (New York, NY) in Nov 2025
Interview
My interview lasted about 30 minutes. I arrived early but waited at least 30 minutes for my interview. The manager was pretty swamped. Ultimately I think they appreciated my patience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked what my experience handling raw foods was, how I prioritize tasks and how important it is for me to keep my workstation tidy.
Asked questions about what positions work best for you, why you want to work there, what makes you a good fit there, where you see yourself in 5 years. Very simple and open to answer any questions I had
I applied online. I interviewed at Chipotle (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2026
Interview
Very brief, was only asked a few questions. I felt a decision about not hiring me was made before the interviewer even sat down. I suspect the interviewer was not accustomed to interviewing and may actually only standing in for a manager that was not working that day
The interview process included an application, attending a brief in-person interview, answering questions about teamwork, availability, customer service, and attitude, and was sometimes followed by a same-day or quick hiring decision.
