The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Starbucks (Las Vegas, NV) in Oct 2011
Interview
The Starbucks interview consist of 2 one on one interviews by 2 different managers. They basically ask the same questions, but do it in this manner to throw you off your game, unfortunately this procedure worked on me because I was very confident and charismatic during the first interview, but confused, flustered, and nervous during the second. They ask basic interviewing questions like why do you want to work here and what would you do to appease an upset customer, and then a few more specific questions like what do you enjoy about coffee and asking you to describe a happy starbucks experience.
they ended up giving the position to the guy who interviewed after me, but i have a feeling their decission was partially based on gender/race because he was the only male and the only non white/hispanic person ive ever seen work at this location
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most dificult part of the interview was having to answer ever question twice to different managers, it was very difficult to convey myself eloquently after already putting so much effort into it the first time
Over zoom during Covid , average interview, asked why I want to work there and asked different scenarios. Depends on the manager you get, all are different. Every store is also different
Easy interview process; under 30 minutes; they ask about pervious work experiences. They also ask questions like: if you can remember a time you went above and beyond at your previous job.
