First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at CC's Coffee.
Barista
The interview process was pretty straightforward. It took place right there at the coffee shop. They even give you a free drink to taste while they interview you. The questions they asked were pretty standard.
- Can you share an instance where you overcame a challenging situation?
- Have you previously worked in a fast-paced coffee environment?
Barista
It was a pretty straightforward interview. They asked simple questions about handling customer service, like what to do if you saw theft or how to deal with unhappy guests. They also asked about a time I went above and beyond for a customer. They're looking for friendly, not overly assertive answers. Even though I had Starbucks experience, they still put me through their training program to learn their specific way of doing things, so prior experience isn't strictly necessary; they focus on attitude.
- What steps would you take if you observed someone giving away free coffee?
Manager
I had a phone chat, then met with a district manager. Later, I shadowed a store manager to see their daily operations.
- How do you keep yourself organized?
Barista
The interviewer was really patient and kind. But as soon as I brought up salary, they cut the interview short. They weren't willing to match the pay I was getting at my current job.
- Tell me about your previous customer service experience.
