Panda Express interview questions

Very easy. I walked in they hired me after a 5 min question interview. Easy conversation no pressure and they just wanted to make sure you are a good fit for the entire company orange chicken wok greens and white rice

The first step of the process was to participate in an online interview. You'll be placed in a waiting room with several other candidates and a representative from Panda Express will go over the company and some of the benefits of working for them. Once an interviewer has time they'll invite you into a private video conference for a brief interview. If selected to go forward the 2nd step is an interview with one of their area managers. Both of these steps were routine for me and the people doing the interviews were very professional and asked some solid questions while answering all of mine at the same time. The 3rd phase of the interview process is to do a "Panda Preview" where you work for about 6hrs in the store of their choice. When you go in for the preview day they treat you just like a new employee and have you go through all the basic tasks of working in the store. The hardest part for me was practicing on the giant wok they cook all the food in. I believe a lot of what they take you through is to try and scare people off that aren't willing to do small tasks like cleaning dishes and bussing tables. The entire panda preview was very easy for me and I was invited to the final step which was another zoom interview. Unfortunately the person who performed the final interview was very disrespectful and unprofessional throughout. The interviewer looked away almost the entire time seemingly disinterested in everything I had to say. At one point the interviewer called me old and implied that I couldn't manage one of their stores because I haven't been in the fast food industry for several years. It's sad that one of the things that drew me to Panda Express as a company was their inclusive nature only to find out they discriminate against people based on age.
