ghosted after interview :-/ (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by robertbearin
hey hey, i had an interview almost two weeks ago now and i thought it went really well. the manager told me they’d get back to me within the end of the coming week and to email them if i hadn’t heard anything. i sent an email after a week passed and called in twice—the first time i was given an exact time for the manager’s next shift, so i called in again during that time and the girl that picked up the phone said “all i know is that they won’t be here today” lol. at this point i’m not expecting to hear anything back but it just seems weird. i wasn’t like 100% sure i was gonna get the job but again i thought i had a really good interview and i’d at least hear Something back rather than getting straight up ghosted ....

Unfortunately that's how some SMs (store managers) say no to people who interview/apply. Even for me when I tried to transfer the answer was "no" and they didn't bother calling me, so I had to call them lol. My best advice is to either go in and annoy the manager (preferably politely). Best/worst days are Mondays: the manager is always there cause they gotta go manager things, I'd say around 12-2pm is best time. If they still say no, try to reapply to a different location!

sounds about right, my manager doesn't call back people she isn't hiring. if you got ghosted, chances are you're not getting hired and if you go into the store it'll probably just be awkward for you 😥😥 i've witnessed it. my SM literally hides from people when they come in or pretends to not be the manager, lmfao. i'm sorry, you should try another store 😔

Probably means you didn't get the job. Most SMs don't follow up and it's policy to not explain why you didn't get the job.

i would suggest going into the store and asking for the manager directly .
