I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Albany, NY) in Jan 2021
Interview
Easy going; in-store. Be passionate about the customer experience over coffee type or origin. They want to know you are e a hard-worker and good at customer service. Be honest, friendly, and authentic.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do if a customer complained about their beverage taste/temperature?
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
