I was contacted by one of my close friends about the position being open. I applied online and within a few days I was contacted by Jocelyn from the corporate office. We went over the details of the job and she asked a lot about my background. She said the next step would be an in person interview at Trader Vic's in Emeryville. During that interview I met the President, EVP, and Dir of Bev. This interview was more in depth and went over my entire work history and background in beverage. I was also told the requirements for the job and what would be expected of me in that position. We had a Q&A towards the end of the interview that answered all the questions I had. That took place right before Christmas so it took about 3 weeks for them to get back with my on the status of the position. I was then contacted via phone by Jocelyn saying we had to go over some questions they had prior to them making a decision. After that it was about 2 days before the President called me and offered me the position.

From the start of the interview process my contact was HR Generalist. She was very informative and professional. After my initial phone screening, I was asked to come in for an in person interview. I met with the CEO, EVP, and HR generalist. Everybody was very welcoming and professional.
