      General Manager Interview

      Mar 11, 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Grand Blanc, MI
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Subway (Grand Blanc, MI) in Dec 2012

      Interview

      This is a franchise business. I applied online and was contacted within 1 week by phone. I had first interview at franchise headquarters with the director of HR. The interview was about an hour in length and covered my experience as a GM and led into how I would deal with particular circumstances such as employee theft, high food cost, steps to control labor, disciplinary procedures, and so on. Preparing a good number of questions for them is always recommended for things about their company. IE what is the growth potential, what are the benefits offered, what is a typical day for the position your applying for. The office was very nice newer building, with friendly staff whom appear to be well trained. After my initial interview I returned a week later for a second interview with an area Manager who basically asked the same questions and seemed to be getting a feel for me. Nothing all that different in the second interview. I was contacted a week later with a formal offer which we reviewed, agreed to and now I am currently still employed with this company.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The only question I was not fully prepared for was "What steps would you take if your are not in the black on your P&L statement?"

      Sep 15, 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Madison, WI
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Subway (Madison, WI) in Sep 2010

      Interview

      One in person interview with owner. He seemed pretty understanding. He explained his "no call/ no show" ploicy, it was very relaxed. The owner is also a district manager. He takes great pride in his restaurants. He doesn't like to hire people that have worked at other Subways. Honesty is very important to him. If his employees leave before they have worked for him for one year, he sees their employment as a failure.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What do you see as the most important: Honesty, (Punctual-Reliable), Hardworking, Friendly?
