I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Evansville, IN) in May 2024
Interview
They ask quite a few questions, my interview was over 30 minutes. A lot of why do you want to work here and the only way to actually get it is to use the STAR method. (Tell me about a time you had conflict with a coworker, tell me about a time you were creative for a deadline, tell me about a time you handled an irate customer, tell me about your work history, etc)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Think of a time you had conflict with a coworker, how did you resolve that situation?
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your input and will take it into consideration as we continue to improve our interview process.
It was short and to the point. They asked my availability and past experience working in the food industry. Since I didn’t have any, I felt it was going to prevent me from getting the job.
Usual standard process of interviewing, we went over my experience and knowledge of working as barista in coffee shops and restaurants in my previous jobs. Highly recommend as a great place to work at !!
Thank you for taking the time to write your feedback. We appreciate your input and are happy to hear that you've enjoyed your overall partner experience here at Starbucks!
The interview was not too bad, I had to wait a bit before getting called for my interview due to some mishaps on their end but that was really the only thing that was negative. It was fine. They called back pretty quickly
