I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Starbucks (Ancaster, ON) in Feb 2012
Interview
Applied Online, Met the Manager at the store. We had a really easy conversation. I had previous experience in customer service. Good entry level position for new students looking for more business experience. Typical questions are asked - name a situation where you overcame a difficult time. - What are your strengths and weaknesses? The online part of the interview was slightly extensive. I had applied to a lot of different locations in the area.
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 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.
