I applied online. I interviewed at Starbucks (South Elgin, IL) in Jan 2025
Interview
Basically get asked a couple of questions throughout the interview relating to customer service, experience, availability to work, and other things that are similar to working at Starbucks that would make you a good person to hire for this.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do if a customer what dissatisfied with their order?
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.
