I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Starbucks (Winnipeg, MB) in Aug 2008
Interview
It was a hiring fair, so first i was interviewed by one person - she asked some basic questions as well as some behavioural ones (tell me about a time when... what happened? what was the outcome, etc.). then i moved on to another manager who went more indepth with the behavioural/situational questions... it took about 30 minutes with this manager. she didn't seem to be particularly invested in the interview (kept glancing around a lot). in the end she said that she would give me a call by the end of the week... she never did, so i called to follow up and a person there said that they had already found someone.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
tell me about a time when you took the ethical highroad when others did not, why did you do it?
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.
After applying online they invited me for an online interview that was a group interview then the next stage would have been a one to one digital interview over zoom.

Question 1
What's a difficult customer interaction you've had?
Easiest interview I've ever had. I was only asked 3 questions, 'tell me about yourself, what are your strengths & weaknesses, what is your availability?' Lasted about 10 minutes maximum
