I applied online. I interviewed at Starbucks (Portland, OR) in Jul 2023
Interview
I applied online and then got a call to schedule a meeting with the hiring manager. The hiring manager then took me to her office and started interviewing me by asking simple behavioral questions like a time I went above and beyond for a customer or how I handled a stressful situation.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your input and will take it into consideration as we continue to improve our interview process.
Easy-going, conversational, friendly. They were understanding and listened well. It was easy to speak to them. However, interviewing in a busy store can get a bit difficult with everyone inside the store.
Basic questions about my personality, reliability, and desire to work. Not very difficult however be prepared to talk about yourself and show a willingness to learn and you should be fine.
The interview was quite easy and relaxed. They asked me about different case scenarios, how I would handle certain situations, and discussed my previous work experience in detail. The interviewers were friendly and professional throughout the process, which made me feel comfortable. As a nice gesture, they also offered me a free coffee while I was there.
