I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Starbucks (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2024
Interview
Behavioral questions involving how do you deal with an angry customer and how do you deal with stressful situations. Additionally asked about my own interests in coffee and what the smell of coffee meant to me.

How do you deal with an angry customer?
Interview process was quick and simple. The manager had a guide of questions but we also chatted a bit. It made it a comfortable conversation. She was very nice and the store was clean.

Had to do 1 phone interview and 1 in person interview. Basic questions, tell me about yourself, tell me about a time you worked in a team, how would you describe yourself etc

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.
