22. What do you know about Starbucks' mission?
How to Answer
This should be an easy question if you've done your homework before the interview of researching Starbucks' mission: 'To inspire and nurture the human spirit - one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time.' You should demonstrate an understanding of how Starbucks' values, outlined on their website, fit into this mission and how the role that you're applying to relates as well.
Let your interviewer know what parts of the mission resonate with you the most and why.

"I know that your mission focuses on building up individuals and communities through coffee and 'nurturing the human spirit.' I care deeply about my own community, regularly volunteering at a local youth shelter and volunteering for the school board, making Starbucks' mission inspiring to me. I hope to foster a sense of neighborhood community through positive interactions with customers and coworkers as a barista at Starbucks."
