I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Starbucks (Orlando, FL) in June 2021
Interview
They asked me what my favorite animal was. And then compared my work ethic to that animal. My favorite animal is a sloth but at my last store we were the fastest in the district. I don’t see how that correlates at all. But ok.
Received an email asking to schedule an interview for the following week. The interview took place in the store itself, and took about 15 minutes. The questions were pretty average.
First interview went well, just the basic behavioral questions that should be answered using the STAR method. Second interview was less questions but with the district manager. Still waiting to hear back (if they reach out at all).
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
Tell me about a time where you had to navigate a situation where the supervisor wasn’t available.
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.
