I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Caribou Coffee (Minnetonka, MN) in Oct 2015
Interview
Interview with store manager and district manager. They ask very interesting questions like "If you could be anyone in the world, who would it be? " or "Take a moment and look around the store and tell me what you see. Both managers that I interviewed with were very pleasant and encouraging.
I was greeted by team members and offered something to drink. I didn't know whether they were offering to "give" me something or if they were just offering to accommodate me,so I just asked for water... Turns out the standard is to give you a coffee drink.
I was interviewed by the store manager. She was friendly and professional. I was asked very strange questions so I wasn't able to rely on any canned answers, but the interview was more laid back than others I've had.
I was called the next day and asked to come back for a second interview with the District Manager He was also very friendly and easy to talk to.
