I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks in Dec 2010
Interview
2 interviews, fast paced job! Original start at both starbucks I have worked at were pretty hostile at first, I'm not sure if it's me or just starbucks, but eventually it was fine, just have to have a thick skin!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How have you overcome a difficult customer and what did you do make them happy
Received an email asking to schedule an interview for the following week. The interview took place in the store itself, and took about 15 minutes. The questions were pretty average.
First interview went well, just the basic behavioral questions that should be answered using the STAR method. Second interview was less questions but with the district manager. Still waiting to hear back (if they reach out at all).
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
Tell me about a time where you had to navigate a situation where the supervisor wasn’t available.
Basically a short chat about my availability, my interest in the job, why I want to work there, how familiar I am with coffee and what my past experiences in hospitality were.
