I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2017
Interview
Phone interview with recruiter the face to face with 2 district managers. It was in a Starbucks store with so many customers that it was distracting. I was very qualified for the position and they decided not to go with me. I reached out to get some feedback and never heard back. Very disappointed with the company and this whole process has changed how I feel about the company and where I choose to spend my money.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Starbucks (Salem, OR) in Apr 2018
Interview
After the initial phone interview with the recruiter where more operational questions were asked, I was scheduled a in person interview with 2 DM's where the questions were scripted to "tell me about a time" One of the DM's was diving into my personal reasons for leaving a company which ended up being interesting as I've never had a person really ask details of a divorce during an interview. The questions were not hard as long as you have go to answers for all the "tell me about a time" scenarios.

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Starbucks (West Hartford, CT) in Apr 2018
Interview
Applied through ziprecruiter, was emailed 15 minutes later by talent acquisition to set up a phone interview about a week out. Completed the phone interview and was told that I did not have enough experience to be a store manager although I was a district manager with 70 employees doing $4.4 million/month at the time. She told me the assistant store manager position would better suite me. That would be a $40k salary pay cut which I felt was extremely disrespectful.
