Interview Day - 12/4/14

I woke up and ate a nice breakfast and prepared an interview outfit.

Although it is December it was a fairly warm day and I was able to wear a black and gold dress that was about an inch above my knee with my black leather Jeffrey Campbell pumps.

I went to my sister's shop about an hour and a half before my interview so that she could apply makeup to my face something natural looking and enhancing my features.

I found the most convenient parking space and arrived on time for my interview.

 I walked in with a great big smile on my face, one of the girls greeted me, and I told her I was there for an interview with Y. She politely responded and went to notify Y that I had arrived. While she did that another Hooters Girl came to the front of the store and began talking to me.

It was really refreshing to have a pleasant conversation with a Hooters girl as my previous experiences. Shortly after talking with Hooters Girl, I will name her K; Y shortly arrived and greeted me. I stood up and shook his hand and he escorted me toward the back of the store in a booth section.

 I was so nervous, anxious and ready all at the same time. Here are some brief highlights of my interview:

  • He asked why I wanted to be a Hooters girl
  • Review my past work experience
  • Asked what my goals/passion are
  • Gave me a brief layout about the company and the benefits of being an HG
  • How would I follow all rules for alcohol 
  • How would I check to see if a customer is intoxicated
  • Why should I be hired
  • What is my schedule like
  • What were my interests
  • Did I have any questions 
  • How did I feel about the uniform 
Honestly the conversation didn't feel like an interview it seemed like a natural conversation for a meet and greet which made me feel comfortable.



I could tell I had won him over enough to pass me on to the next phase. He invited me to come back the following day (which was a Friday) for audition with the General Manager, J. I was so excited but tried to remain calm yet greatly appreciative. He mentioned to they normally do not review any hiring information on Fridays, but he would make an exception for me. He told me to hold tight so that he could get me some more information, we said goodbye and I left super excited.



 I got out of the door and had the biggest smile on my face. I know that many might now see that as much of an accomplishment but I was confident that I was one step closer to being a hooters girl/bar girl. I called my sister to set up another make up appointment before my audition and then headed home. I was so excited.

Y said that I could start orientation on Monday as long as J approved me!  Talk about excited
