It was a pretty basic interview. They asked about my employment history for barista skills. The interview was held at one of their coffee places. There were two people interviewing me, which was a little intimidating, but they were nice and welcoming.

The interview process was as advertised. It started with a 45 min phone call. Then there were supposed to be two in person interviews: one with the hiring manager and team, and another possibly with the CEO. After a 55 minute first interview, and a follow up email and phone call, I haven't heard back.

I didn't get past the first step, which was a 30-minute phone chat with the supervisor. The call seemed to go well because the supervisor and I had connections in common. I thought I'd hear back either way about moving on. But, I never heard anything. They totally ghosted me. I followed up a week later and still got no response.

Behavioral Presentation
Timeline: From applying to first contact - 4 days. First contact to first interview - 2 days. First interview to second interview - 10 days. Second interview to offer - 10 days. The first interview was a 30-minute phone chat with the supervisor. The second interview was an on-site panel with 4 staff members that regularly work with this position. Overall, the hiring manager gave a great experience, communicating well, being transparent, and responding quickly. Based on other reviews, it seems the interview process really depends on the supervisor for the role.
