I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Teavana (Boca Raton, FL) in Jun 2015
Interview
It was a fairly simple interview. They asked general questions about my experience and strengths and weaknesses. They also had me do a "sell me this random item" exercise. In the end I was offered a position as Sales Associate instead of Team Lead because I didn't have enough sales experience, but the hourly wage wasn't enough for me financially.
Very quick 2 step interview process, the general manager was friendly and personable. Very good interview for an entry level retail position. I interviewed over 10 years ago and the company no longer exists as it was bought by Starbucks.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Teavana (Newark, DE) in Nov 2017
Interview
I was interviewed over the phone because the store manager loved my references and resume and she already knew she wanted to hire me, but an interview was policy. So I had a 6 minute phone interview.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Teavana (Santa Clara, CA)
Interview
The process began with the store manager offering a drink, on the house, before stepping towards a different location with resume in hand. Once everyone has sat down, the manager overlooked the resume and begins to ask questions of personal background, if there are any retail experience, is there any experience with financial management, and explaining the importance of commitment.
