I have worked as a professional in the industry for 20 years. I have ran restaurants, managed kitchens, menus, and staff.
With thay being said, the interview process here was by far the worst I have ever experienced.
I showed up 15 minutes early for my interview, to be put off for the next one hour and 15 minutes. Yes, that means I did my interview an hour after scheduled.
I was told the kitchen manager was too busy (The restaurant was basically empty) and the service manager ended up doing my interview. Within the first minute of speaking with her I could tell she had no business interviewing for.kitchen staff (She admitted she did not know what to ask kitchen staff candidates) So after wasting almost an hour and a half of myb5ime several weeks ago, do you think they did me the courtesy of letting me knownifnI gotnthe job or not?
This was a blessing in disguise, as a much higher end restaurant in the area saw my experience and potential and snagged me right up. So I appreciate LongHorns dropping the ball on this one.
