I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Starbucks (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2014
Interview
Phone interview was brief and unprofessional. Recruiters work from home and the ones I spoke with sounded distracted.
The follow up was more professional, in person, and to the point. Starbucks wanta swlf sufficient partners who can demonstrate customer service skills and employee relation skills.

Question 1
What experience do you have writing and implementing a schedule?
I applied online. I interviewed at Starbucks in May 2026

Super easy. Applied online. A recruiter reached out for initial interview, was about 15-30 minutes. Recruiter set up second interview with DM and peer DM for the following week. After that, was interviewed by the regional.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Starbucks (Chicago, IL) in Apr 2026
Interview
Two district sanagers interviewing over Microsoft Teams. Extensive, heavy "STAR" use required in questions with follow up questions from interviewers. 5 questions for me but our interview went nearly an hour, overall friendly.

Application
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Starbucks (Concord, CA)
Interview
You first have a screen with the recruiter, and she sets up time to speak with you. If you pass that, you get sent to the DM and interview with that DM and another DM and then usually decision after that.
