What You'll Get

A structured set of role-specific interview questions that help you identify the best candidates — not just the smoothest talkers.

The Prompt

Copy and paste this
Give me 10 interview questions for a restaurant [server / line cook / bartender / host / shift lead]. Include: 3 behavioral questions (starting with "Tell me about a time..."), 3 situational questions (starting with "What would you do if..."), 2 skills/experience questions, and 2 availability/logistics questions. This is for a [type of restaurant — casual, upscale, high-volume, etc].

Tips

Use the same question set for every candidate in the same role so you can compare answers fairly. Add one situation-specific question ("we're short-staffed on weekends — how do I screen for availability?") directly in the prompt.
