I applied online. I interviewed at Caribou Coffee (Maple Grove, MN) in Aug 2016
Interview
The interview was short and sweet..they did not ask too many questions. The questions they did ask were very odd. Interview was short and very informal. I wore jeans and a nice shirt, nothing special. The boss would have still hired me if I wore sweatpants.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Caribou Coffee (Rochester, MN) in Aug 2024

Straight forward. Not stressful. Looking for people with a strong work ethic. The interviewer was friendly. They're open to training people without much experience as a barista. They generally want to know that you have a good work ethic and have schedule availability that meets their needs.
