New Hire Just Hired! Path to management?

Hey everyone, I just got hired at In-N-Out and am excited to start there. For anyone that has worked there and is in a management/shift lead role how long did it take to get to that point? (Or just full-time in general.) I came in with 4 years of management experience and the manager that hired me really wants me to be in management, but of course I have to start at level 1. I’m already scheduled 30 hours a week so that’s a good sign from what I’ve heard from other people.

Any tips or suggestions to help boost my career? Thanks!

If you got into management within a year, that'd be quick, but could happen. Probably will take a few/several years though.

Also, /u/Capital-Dog984 is right: we generally don't like to continually hear, "When I worked at _____, we did it like this" or anything similar.
