I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Calgary, AB) in Jan 2015
Interview
Very articulate interview process on a website, with many questions about job, approach and leadership. After the web process, one of the best I have seen, I had a phone interview. During the interview the hiring manager had the wrong resume and he asked me why I wanted to change my job after only a year, and I explained the reason. After the call he didn't call and reply to my email about the process.

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.
