Job seekers moving on to interviews should expect to hear from a hiring manager one or two weeks after requesting employment consideration. After gaining a Wendy’s interview, an applicant should know how to answer interview questions properly and generally win over the interviewer.
Workers should dress in business casual attire and arrive a few minutes before the scheduled interview time.

My brother got his first job at Wendy’s. He did a good job for them and when I went in to apply it helped that they knew he did good work and were willing to chance it on me. I brought my application filled out with.
its important not to over dress a nice button up shirt and dress pants work just fine not to flashy make sure u speak clearly.Ask them ? About whats its like working here make sure u know what u can bring to the table (knowing what ur good at and not so good at) show respect give eye contact,shake hands with a firm grip but not to hard to feel uncomfortable
Wendys does not drug test they may do a backround checks theo just 2 be safe when u go for ur interview make sure its a job you want to have because if get it you will wasteing your time and the person that hired you time wendys is fast paced work and can be demanding sometimes just like any job u get just keep this in mind……
Well I work for Wendy’s now!! I have been there for about 6 months. I recently applied for a shift manager. I am in Florida. The company is Meritage Hospitality group. I have two felonies and a few follow up charges ranging over 14 years. However, I also have a college degree in psychology and a list of references ranging from police seargents, counseling therapist to former employees who all wrote references for me sayin I am dependable and trust worthy. I also recorded a presentation like I was the weather man with all of the wendy’s “welearn” courses I completed. Welearn is a online learning course to learn all the functions in the store. From the grill to the register and all that. I put on an amazing interview performance with my Macbook pro presentation. I am now waiting on a response from my District Manager. If I can move up to management anyone can. With the right focus it can be done. However, if they deny me…..its on to the next one. Minimum wage is not enough to raise a family!
How long will the interview take?
April 29th, 2010 at 9:00 pmWhat should I wear?

July 1st, 2010 at 7:22 ami worked for Wendys for 2yrs and 8 months back in Aug. 2005 thru April 2008), i got fired because someone informed corporate office that i had a third degree felony back in 2003, i paid my fines and did my probation and have had my cilvil rights restored , but when i filled out my application i didn’t admit i was ever convicted of a felony, can i reapply to Wendy again, this time being honest….Wendy down here in Florida has been bought by a different company than the one i worked for when i was hired and fired.

October 1st, 2010 at 1:30 amhow do i show i want the job without seeming so desperate and unprofessinal?

impress by the way you talk…
November 2nd, 2010 at 3:36 pmremeber your not with your friends on a saturday night your with the person that is gonna make you bank !lol
!i didnt really respond to the weakness one but just say
November 2nd, 2010 at 3:38 pmmy weaknesses are that once im on the move i just wanna keep on going cause i am a fast pace worker and if it slows down i will start to lose the motivation BUT i am really enthusiastic and energetic so its not hard to get motivated…
The interview questions at any fast food joint, I’m going to guess, are virtually the same.
When I went to KFC for an interview, I already had my online application printed and filled out, which they liked.
I’m not sure why but they took them an hour (in not very busy conditions) to get around to the interview. I was so tired of waiting I got less motivated and didn’t anticipate the questions. I tensed up when she started asking them and couldn’t think about my answers.
but it was stuff like,
“Do you consider yourself a loyal person?.. Give one example of how you’ve shown loyalty”
“What other kind fo jobs have you held?.. What were the worst parts of each of those jobs?”
Basically, I was so unprepared cause I had no idea what they were gonna ask.
Why do we look for jobs?
To get money right? So honestly, I’ve been super broke lately and not to mention bored so I’ve been trying to get motivated, but if I dont feel motivated on any given day, I don’t feel confident. And you have to show them you are confident as well as able to adapt, which requires a certain level of comfort with your interviewer.
I’m thinking, during my next interview, I’m not going to think like “this would be my co-worker”
but rather that the interviewer is someone I’ve known for a long time, yet without really knowing who they are, but whom I have ultimate respect for. Ya know what Im sayin?
Anyway,
January 13th, 2011 at 8:59 pmThey said they’d call back for a second interview, but they never did.
Soo, on to the next one.
What should I bring to the interview?
April 25th, 2011 at 1:32 pmWhat questions do they ask?
What should I wear, or how should I dress?
For restaurants, do you get free food (sandwich, burger, drinks, etc) or lunch if you work there?
How much do they pay? Will they ask about salary expectations, if so what should I say?
Is it hard to get the job?
How to manage second interviews?
When to expect a call?
Hi I have an interveiw tomarrow with wendys but dont know what questions to ask so im asking..What Questions would I ask the person interviewing me so I can seem ingaged and wanting to know more about the job? because I heard that its good to always ask questions.
August 1st, 2011 at 4:12 amI am 16 yrs old. I am motivated, i can multitask, i am reliable and i am great with people. I really would like a job at Wendy’s. It would be my first job. I sent in an application 3 days ago and i was going to do a walk in Monday and hopefully get to talk to the manager. But since i haven’t had a job before, i am really nervous & not sure what to say when i see the manager. Any advice on how to present myself to the manager?
September 30th, 2011 at 8:33 pmWhen i had my interview it was only like 5 minutes i was hired on the spot. She asked me where did i work, when can i start, and tell me about yourself that was it. But i would NEVER go back to that place
September 25th, 2011 at 3:43 amI have an interview this coming Thursday. I’m 25 years old and have been receiving unemployment benefits for quite some time. Having just bombed an interview at Bed, Bath & Beyond, I’m looking for some tips on how to overcome nerves and the adverse impression that being on unemployment for so long may leave on the interviewer. Suggestions?
November 29th, 2011 at 8:21 pmHello again! I feel like I nailed my Wendy’s interview today, but for some reason I’m still worried that I won’t get the job. The hiring manager that interviewed me really seemed to like me. There was a lot of smiling, laughter, and a general laid back feeling during the process. My question is, when can I expect to hear back from them?
December 1st, 2011 at 4:21 pmDoes Wendy’s do a drug test at the interview? Or at all?
