I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Compass Coffee (Washington, DC) in Jul 2024
Interview
Easy, straightforward, and expected questions. It was an online meeting that took less than 15 minutes, and the hiring manager was looking for knowledge and personality (which makes sense for a barista, customer-facing role).
The interview process was quick and smooth. The manager called me 5 minutes early and asked me a lot of questions, but she was engaged. It was a breeze and I got an offer on call and started working the following week.
Met with two managers and was given the details about the job. It was relatively straightforward and easy. I was told at the end that my application would be pushed through.
Very welcoming and casual, heard there's a weird work environment. Lots of turnover, nice space to work at. Minimum wage. Kind manager I interviewed with. Cool location in Georgetown, lots of space and good coffee.
