Interview gone bad (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Evonnex
I’ll make this short, but I got an interview finally. She told me it was virtual and she would send me a link. She didn’t, and when I called she just rescheduled it with me. I didn’t know if it was a phone interview or video, as she never sent the detailed email. I was sent a reminder email but no details at the rescheduling. When interview came, it was video and I was unprepared. Rushed to look nice and I ended up a hot mess. My anxiety went up and I stuttered. Most of my sentence didn’t make sense once it left my mouth. She went from “can’t wait to have you at my store” to “I have more interview to do, I’ll call Monday if you got the job”. I definitely didn’t get the job, do I start doing applications to other locations?

Never settle on just one application. You always need other options. In regards to the interview, it may be a hidden blessing. The manager sounds unorganized. So just imagine how she runs that location based on her lack of communication. Sorry that happened to you though. Best of luck on your next interview! I’m sure you’ll get accepted somewhere else!

Thank you! I needed this, I felt really bad that I couldn’t pull myself together when I was stuck in this situation. When I thought my social anxiety was getting better haha

You might have gotten the job! But I’d look at other options just in case. Just to be safe! Don’t sweat the Starbucks interview. If you didn’t get it it’s not the end of the world— Infact you’ll be saving your mental health if you don’t lol. I had an amazing experience, 3 years and 2 years as a shift. But.. I’d be lying if I said it was easy. Definitely have to have a thick skin to work there.

I worked in fast food but I can tell this job would be a lot difficult. I really wanted to give it a go, although it’ll probably take me a minute to get use to it. I’m going to put applications in and wait for a word back from the manager. Thank you!

If you have experience then you might have a good chance of getting that job then:). Yeah, it’s different than any other fast food out there. The one thing to keep in mind is that it is much much more than just making coffee. Starbucks is a big world! Haha! Good luck to you!! :)
