I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Scooter's Coffee (Collinsville, IL) in May 2023
Interview
Very friendly and more of a conversational format. Was made to feel welcome and appreciated immediately. Very family oriented since this is not a corporate location and a franchise owned establishment. Owners have multiple stores that appear to be thriving.
The interview process is a quick turnaround, easy and clear. They provide a specific timeframe you'll hear back and make it clear what your duties, responsibilities and potential shift schedule will look like.

Interview
My hours for interviews weren’t compatible with meeting in person. I was offered a phone interview which I accepted and even messaged prior my intent to answer. When the time came, I received no call. So I sent a polite message asking to reschedule my interview and show my intent to join their team and I was ghosted. I am highly disappointed because I fully intended to go for the job especially since most jobs aren’t actually hiring like their ads say.
Just wanted knowledge of previous industry experience and availibility. Asked questions regarding working in a fast pace, team setting and eagerness to grow within the company. Asked about salary expectations, asked questions regarding personal life outside of work.
