I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Moreno Valley, CA) in Jul 2025
Interview
There are two interviews now. Store manager and then direct manager. Make sure you show your personality and don't be afraid to giggle, smile, and be yourself. They want someone who is outgoing and able to effective create customer retention
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give me a time when you were by yourself at your workplace, and how did you handle it?
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.
After applying online they invited me for an online interview that was a group interview then the next stage would have been a one to one digital interview over zoom.

Question 1
What's a difficult customer interaction you've had?
Easiest interview I've ever had. I was only asked 3 questions, 'tell me about yourself, what are your strengths & weaknesses, what is your availability?' Lasted about 10 minutes maximum
