• Answer:

  I just had mine today and got hire on the spot lol don't worry I was freaking out before because I didn't know where to go or anything, but I just asked someone and they brought out the manager. It was during the lunch rush of all times :P anyway here are the ones that I know they ask: Why do you want to work here? What kind of salary do you need (I didn't know so she's like hows 9.50? I'm like sure) Whats your best strength? Um my new manager had a little sheet that she wrote my answers down on. And the sheet was only like 3 pages single sided so its really short. Then she said that she looked over my resume and was like, I want to hire you when can you start? And I said tomorrow and she's like ok well you'll start at nine. Then she's said is there any day that you know of that you'll miss and I said the few I know of. And yea. Don't be worried, just be yourself (cliche I know but honestly it works) and smile. Edit: If you do work there, be prepared to watch 6+ hours worth of training videos. Then they put you on shadowing somebody (super fun if you get the right person and the hours when most people care about drive through) and learn the basics. From one day I can make every coffee, except for ones with expresso and a few other because nobody bothered to order them.
