I applied online. I interviewed at Starbucks (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Phone screen by HR then hiring manager.
Brought in for F2F (wouldn't pay for travel).
Never met with key people I would work with on a day to day basis.
No surprise questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very much from a list of typical questions.
Almost like HR put them together for them or they pulled from the web.
3 stages. Recruiter, hiring manager and director.
Not too challenging as they are new to Product, but the people were lovely.
Each one lasted around an hour.
Recruiter would call after to give any feedback available which I thought was great.
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We appreciate your input and are happy to hear that you’ve enjoyed the interview process here at Starbucks!
Fairly long process. Included a few phone interviews followed by video call with the team and a project you present during the final interview with the person you report to and the team you’d be working with.

Question 1
Describe your weakness and how you can overcame it?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Starbucks (Frankfurt am Main)
Interview
Too long but worth it in the end because they let you know immediately if you got the job. They do ask a lot of technical questions and want to know about your motivitation to work for this company.
