Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 6 días. Acudí a una entrevista en Starbucks (Calgary, AB) en oct 2011
Entrevista
Process began online, with the usual profile setup and filling in of details. Parts of the form can be a little frustrating (I took too long on one page, and got booted out of the form, so I had to fill it in all over again). Nice part was that I could apply to multiple stores at once, with just a basic check-box list.
Got a phone call 2 days later at 9AM (didn't pick up because I wasn't awake yet), phoned back and set up an interview for the following day.
Arrived a few minutes early, was offered a free drink (got a Grande Awake Tea), and say in the general seating area. Met with the assistant manager, who had a print-out of a number of questions, had a great one-on-one chat about working for Starbucks, and her background with the company. Shortly afterwards, she called over her Manager, who asked me a few questions as well (and asked for more clarification on some answers I gave to the assistant manager). Was told I would hear from them the next day. The overall interview took just under an hour.
Got a phone call the next day from the Manager with the offer, and got my schedule for the rest of the week right then.

Give an example of a time when you had to make a decision, when you weren't sure whether it was the right one or not.
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.
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
Thank you for taking the time to write your feedback. We appreciate your input and are happy to hear that you’ve enjoyed the interview process here at Starbucks.
it was great. I answered every question thoughtfully and easily. You have to have two interviews, one with the manager and one with the district manager. It is a in person interview. They ask many questions and will either hire you on the spot or you will have to call to see if you get the position.
