I applied in-person. I interviewed at Five Guys (Ocean, NJ) in Oct 2020
Interview
The interview is very quick and easy. They put no pressure on you and talk to you like you are family. They usually get back to you within a few days to a week.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"Have you had any experience in working with food?"
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Five Guys (San Jose, CA) in Aug 2015
Interview
Very simple, experience is desired by the manager. As someone who later went on to interview people for crew positions and manager positions, it's a matter of smiling, being presentable and giving simple examples--don't go over the top and say this is your dream job.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Five Guys in Dec 2015
Interview
The first contact was a call and an email but I couldn't get to the phone because I had another job. I replied to the email and called to set up an interview. The interview was an hour before the store opened and lasted about half an hour. I was interviewed separately by both the General Manager and the franchised operator.
