I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Panera Bread (Jacksonville, FL) in Apr 2021
Interview
It was a very casual group interview. The three of us candidates sat down with the GM and answered basic questions. Basic "getting to know you" questions, experience, food industry stories, plans where you've had to problem solve, etc. I heard back from them the next day.

"How will you be a positive asset in this environment?"
I interviewed at Panera Bread (Virginia Beach, VA)
Interview
The manager that took care of my interview was amazing. Asked me questions like why I wanted to work there, my strengths, my weaknesses, what does warmth mean to me, what i would do in certain situations.
In Annapolis there were 2 interviews they asked me why I wanted to work there my pass experience in previous job & my availability honestly it was relatively easy and they were down to earth
it was a good process and they asked for my background and any other relevant expericen. They were very welcoming and allowed me to talk about my past and ask as many questions as i had.
