I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Starbucks (Edmonton, AB) in Oct 2015
Interview
One on one with manager, background check . Asked about why I choose to apply there,and my expectations from employment. Asked about hobbies, customer service. How you would handle different situations and difficult customers. Asked to describe a situation where I showed my customer service skills.Explained the culture of Starbucks. Explained the dress code. Explained the benefits of working there.
It was not as bad as I thought, they asked me about my values, we talked about experiences with customers ( they are very big on treating customers right so a big emphasis on this) and time management

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks in May 2026
Interview
Applied online, then called the store a week later, said they weren’t hiring for that position actually and then 3 weeks later got a random call for an interview. Two rounds of interviews
I applied for a position online and got a call back pretty much the next day. Interview questions are more based on your ability to tell a story than a right or wrong answer. Two rounds of interviews.
