About your past

Ruth's Marketplace has openings in the kitchen, in service and in the dish room. Which one interests you most, and would you be open to the others?

What they are checking: Whether they are flexible about assignments, which helps the manager cover every station each shift.

Tell me about a time you worked somewhere fast-paced. How did you keep up?

What they are checking: Whether they have handled steady pressure before, such as the speed of the dish room during a rush.

The posting says regular attendance is required. How do you make sure you show up for every shift you pick?

What they are checking: Whether they will be reliable, since one missed shift leaves a station uncovered during a meal period.

The posting mentions opportunities for advancement. What would you want to learn here to move up?

What they are checking: Whether they see the job as a place to grow, which the employer is clearly hoping for.

What would you do

During a busy lunch, the serving line runs low on a popular item and you're also supposed to be wiping tables. What do you do first?

What they are checking: Whether they can prioritize keeping food replenished during meal periods, which the posting stresses.

A student asks whether a dish has nuts or gluten and you aren't sure. How do you handle it?

What they are checking: Whether they will check rather than guess, since a wrong answer about allergens can make someone seriously ill.

A student lead gives you a direction that's different from what a full-time staff member told you earlier. What do you do?

What they are checking: Whether they ask for clarity respectfully instead of ignoring one person or getting frustrated.

What would you do if you noticed a coworker skipping handwashing or using the same gloves for raw and ready-to-eat food?

What they are checking: Whether they will speak up about safety issues that could hurt guests, even when it feels awkward.

About the work

What they are checking: Whether they understand the basic sanitation rules the job requires them to follow every shift.

How do you clean and sanitize a work area at the end of a shift so it's ready for the next crew?
