Starbucks Store Manager interview questions

I applied online, then was contacted by a local Starbucks recruiter the next day. The recruiter asked a few qualifying questions such as how many people I manage in my current position, if I have any experience in hiring and firing, employee reviews, profit & loss statements, etc. Then she said that my application would be under review and if the company chooses to move forward, A few days later, the same recruiter called to schedule a phone interview with me. The phone interview consisted of about 7 questions and lasted 30 minutes. The questions were situational in nature... "tell me about a specific time when an employee was doing something inappropriate and how did you handle it". Overall, with a little preparation, a straightforward process. Preparation is the key.

Recruiter contacted me based on a Resume she found floating around somewhere. Had me take an online assessment test which consisted of fairly obvious choices and some P&L problems....nothing too major. After the test, we scheduled a phone interview. Consisted of basic employment history questions. Also asked if I was interviewing with anyone else and who (very unprofessional). To my surprise, there were literally no behavioral questions like people mentioned. Interview lasted roughly 20 minutes, and got a call the next day saying they were going to pursue other candidates. I would be wary and ask the recruiter more questions upfront before the actual interview. The one I had was obviously not qualified, as a decision was made based on practically no career probing whatsoever. 12+ years of management experience, so I doubt I am under-qualified. Again, be very careful of the recruiter you speak to, it could cost you a job!
