I applied in-person. I interviewed at Starbucks (Naples, FL) in Sep 2025
Interview
The interviewer was super nice! They did make me try the Pike Place roast so liking the taste of coffee definitely gives you a bonus. They asked a few questions, mostly about my experience and how I would react in certain situations. It is a 2 step interview so you will be called back/schedule an interview with the district manager as well.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you react if there was an emergency in the workplace.
It was short and to the point. They asked my availability and past experience working in the food industry. Since I didn’t have any, I felt it was going to prevent me from getting the job.
Usual standard process of interviewing, we went over my experience and knowledge of working as barista in coffee shops and restaurants in my previous jobs. Highly recommend as a great place to work at !!
Thank you for taking the time to write your feedback. We appreciate your input and are happy to hear that you've enjoyed your overall partner experience here at Starbucks!
The interview was not too bad, I had to wait a bit before getting called for my interview due to some mishaps on their end but that was really the only thing that was negative. It was fine. They called back pretty quickly
