I had an interview at a pizza hut a few weeks ago. When they ask why did you want this job don't say money. I said money and they seemed angry and then started talking about how they were looking for someone with more Pizza Hut Spirit or some garbage. Luckily it was only like a 2 minute interview before they asked that and clearly didn't like my answer unlike the hour long one at sears

Say you like engaging with people, be upbeat, put some bounce in your step, and make sure to tuck in your shirt.

Know how to drive, know the area the restaurant serves (to be able to give the quickest delivery, nobody likes cold pizza because of a lost driver) and show them that you can count money to give change on your feet, should they ask.

Asif someone will actually dream to be a pizza boy. Everyone does it for the money and when I applied at Burger King they didn't seem to mind.

I think the most important thing is to say that you love pizza hut and that's why you wanted to work there.

Of course everyone does it for money, but don't say that.

A second interview to deliver pizza? The economy must really be in bad shape. When I used to deliver at Pizza Hut, they only really cared that I didn't have a criminal background. They were desperate for drivers. It was a pretty fun job though.

You definitely, definitely want a GPS. Even if you know your area well, you'll need one if you get the job since some places are damn hard to find. Some areas don't even show up well so I'd look up areas in your town that don't show up.

You should also know that middle class areas tip the best. The people tend to have worked enough to appreciate the work you go through for the tip, while not being too poor to tip efficiently.

Seriously, buy a really cheap POS beater second car with minimum insurance for yourself. It's not worth racking up tons of miles on your car. Also, get a GPS.

Wait, pizza guys have to use their own car? I always thought like the store owned it.

You have to use your own. They of course pay for your gas bill but it's your car you're destroying by racking up another 20-30k miles a year.

No you don't. The company has to pay for your gas.

Well for starters, a drivers licence is a huge plus for a job like this. It would be very inneficient trying to walk to each house.
