      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Portillo’s (Sycamore, IL) in Oct 2017

      Interview

      After asking repeatedly about my application and being turned away, finally was told to ask for a certain manager by name on a certain date on a certain time. After the first you are told to come back and ask for the general manager. Went through a long process of waiting for the second interview date. During that interview was given the job and told to attend orientation, which was 2 and half weeks later.
