I had a Phone call with the General Manger of the store I applied to. The interview lasted about 20 minutes. The Questions were about customer service experience and familiarity with menu and offerings.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to deal with an unhappy customer and how did you fix their experience?
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Caribou Coffee (Saint Paul, MN)
Interview
Straight-forward and simple, manager asked me about my experience, my availability, and how my being a full-time student affected my scheduling. Very professional, and clearly had strong corporate standards for processes and dealing with employees.
In person interview after asking for a position in person and receiving a paper with steps to apply online. This was a U of MN caribou so it was pretty straight forward and I was hired after the interview the next day.
Did two interviews. It was cool. But two seemed a bit much for a barista role. But it did show they were looking for someone who was serious. It was pretty laid back and went well
