I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Chipotle (Arlington Heights, Cook, IL) in Feb 2012
Interview
They call you within the week after you apply online. Then you have to go through 3 interviews with all the managers in the restaurant. I think 2/3 have to like you for you to get hired?
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Chipotle (Temecula, CA) in Aug 2012
Interview
I arrived ten minutes early and was told to sit in a booth with two others who were also being interviewed with me. We sat there for about ten minutes as the GM and Assistant manager were having a loud but private conversation where they were joking around and cussing and being extremely unprofessional. Then the assistant asked each of us a few basic questions and said he would let us know. The GM was on her phone texting the whole time and didn't say a word to us.
I applied in-person. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Chipotle in Jul 2012
Interview
I applied online over the weekend then went into the store Monday morning and asked for an interview. I gave my name and number and availability and was told a time to return for an interview. I was interviewed by the apprentice. I didn't hear back from them when they said they woul, by Thursday night, so I went into the store and talked to the general manager and passed my case just to find out that they already made a decision but were just really busy.
