Matthew S. said:
A server interview really depends on the restaurant, all vary extremely.
My last two serving positions, one interview was more or less a general conversation then a trial run to see how well I could serve, They hired me afterwards. I moved from there to a nicer restaurant later on that was much much more thorough. I had to memorize five orders from the waiting staff in front of the general manager, walk back to the kitchen, then come back and tell the servers what they ordered.
