It was pretty easy, the whole thing took about 30 minutes, nothing too serious. It was mostly coffee-related questions. There was only one round where I talked with somebody in HR. They asked about my prior work experience and school. This is old info though so it might be different now.

It was a quick interview process. They asked about my knowledge of Marylou's company history and their current store locations. Questions might also cover counting money for register transactions and how to interact with customers, as these are part of the job duties.

It was a really quick and chill interview. They asked some basic stuff. It would be a good idea to try the coffee before you apply, since one of the questions they hit you with is to describe the flavor profile of your favorite drink without saying the name of the coffee.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • What's your go-to coffee order, and how would you describe its taste to someone ordering it?
