I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Covina, CA) in Feb 2018
Interview
Pretty straight forward...phone screening to see if you are what they are looking for, in person with 2 district managers and a quick turnaround with an offer.
Only scary part is that they don’t hire with a specific destination in mind so until the week before I started I did not know when I would be training and then a month out of my training I was still waiting for “my store”. Here I am 4 months lawyer in my own store just over 2 weeks now and loving every minute of it!!!
I applied online. I interviewed at Starbucks in May 2026
Interview
Super easy. Applied online. A recruiter reached out for initial interview, was about 15-30 minutes. Recruiter set up second interview with DM and peer DM for the following week. After that, was interviewed by the regional.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Starbucks (Chicago, IL) in Apr 2026
Interview
Two district sanagers interviewing over Microsoft Teams. Extensive, heavy "STAR" use required in questions with follow up questions from interviewers. 5 questions for me but our interview went nearly an hour, overall friendly.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Starbucks (Concord, CA)
Interview
You first have a screen with the recruiter, and she sets up time to speak with you. If you pass that, you get sent to the DM and interview with that DM and another DM and then usually decision after that.
