After working all day in a cubicle, I'd spend my nights as your friendly, neighborhood Starbucks barista! I remembered your name, made each drink exactly to your specifications and did it all with a bright smile. I've served celebrities, worked both drive thru & cafe stores, worked every holiday and have kept the customers from knowing about all the craziness that goes on behind the scenes... until now. Ask me anything.
Usually about two weeks.

It depends if you were coded as rehire eligible or not so you might want to call HR and find out. HR may also be able to give you more guidance on the likelihood of recieving a call back if you were coded as ineligible for rehire (or if you can change that).
Personally, I think it's easy to explain and some managers may give you another shot, but I don't know how Starbucks backend works and if those managers would even know you applied.

If you are hired at Starbucks, they provide the training for free during the first two weeks of your employment.

I believe you talk to your manager and the manager of the store you wish to transfer to a minimum of six months after you begin your employment with Starbucks.

What's the most dramatic "before-and-after" improvement you've ever seen with a patient?
Depends on your store. I only worked nights and close 5-6 days a week because that is where my store needed help. Most people don't like working until 2-3 am, but I was happy to do it.

Beyond store manager there are district and regional managers that you could likely get from starting at a barista with no previous experience. That said, my belief is that having experience with Starbucks may be a plus when going to the corporate side.
I think that a person with no work experience outside of Starbucks will NOT easily make it into the corporate office. However, if you are one of the best candidates for a corporate job and you have previous Starbucks experience, that might be an advantage.
This isn't anything Starbucks has specifically said, but any worthwhile company will value staff with experience--especially at the lowest level--and Starbucks is no exception.

I believe there was a military discount when I worked at Starbucks. I assume there still is. The best way to find out is to ask your barista!
