      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Starbucks (Sacramento, CA)

      Interview

      Interview process is pretty laid back, it’s casual and lots of customer service based questions. They also do a coffee tasting during your interview who thought was pretty cool. It’s was definitely a different interview experience.
