I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Starbucks (Tukwila, WA) in Jun 2010
Interview
My on-the-phone interview was about 20 minutes long. The manager was kind and she asked me to come to the store for an interview in a week. The questions were ones that I've practiced on so I was prepared. I dressed professionally and came five minutes early. My sister works at Starbucks so I used that to amp up my interview answers. For the questions, I asked about what Starbucks does for those who are also full-time college students.
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.
After applying online they invited me for an online interview that was a group interview then the next stage would have been a one to one digital interview over zoom.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What's a difficult customer interaction you've had?
Easiest interview I've ever had. I was only asked 3 questions, 'tell me about yourself, what are your strengths & weaknesses, what is your availability?' Lasted about 10 minutes maximum
