I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sodexo (Davis, CA) in Sep 2015
Interview
I applied online and through school. I heard back within a week or so to turn in extra papers. The interview process was normal for food service experience. My interview had two people who asked questions about availability and common sense questions. Just look up average questions if you've never had any experience in retail or food service.
Easy interview easy job to gain. Requires no experience at all just be groomed and ready to work hard. The interview process is easy just have some skill and experience in food service.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have experience in food service or hospitality?
If you show up, you're hired. They make it sound like there are always hours to pick up, but that is not true once you're hired. They tell you the schedule is up two weeks in advance, but it won't go up until the day before usually.
Simple and easy, just ask for your availability and what they want you to do. It was very quick. You do not have to prepare much. They often let you choose what shift you want to work as well. Work shoes are provided but a bit strict on tardy.
