I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Toronto, ON) in Jul 2011
Interview
Applied on line for barista job. They called and asked me to attend thier job fair. I went and waited for over 2.5 hours with a million other people. Said they`d call by the end of the week, they didn`t. They called late the next week to arange a second interview. Both interviewers used exactly the same questions so I dont see the point in having 2 interviews. Pretty easy. Said they`d call by Monday, they didn`t. Called the next week and offered job.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
How have you handled negetive feedback in the past
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.
