Starbucks Store Manager at Starbucks

3.0
Average Interview
Overall Positive Experience Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Houston, TX (took 2 weeks)

Applied online, completed an online personality assessment called the "Virtual Job Tryout". Was contacted the following day by the regional HR office, was asked a few "on the spot" type questions and scheduled a phone interview for the following day. The recruiter was extremely friendly and professional. The interview lasted aprox 30 minutes and I was informed that the district manager would be in contact with me directly. A week later I received a phone call and scheduled a 1:1 interview. All questions are behavior based, some repeats. Overall fairly easy with some preparation.

Interview Questions

Tell me about a time when you were responsible for training an employee that you are particularly proud of. What was the outcome?

Other Details

The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Personality Test.
