| Qualifications |
Are you kind and genuine with people, customers and co-workers alike? Can you be focused on making people feel good even when you're having a less-than-stellar day? Are you good at connecting with people, reading faces/body language and empathizing?
Does the challenge of working efficiently and skillfully under pressure (without losing your sense of humor) interest you? This ain't no sit-around-on-your-butt-drinking-coffee job... you really gotta be able to hustle! There's always work to do, but when there's a line out that door, it's game on, for real.
Are you interested in culinary stuff, foodie stuff? Maybe you love to cook (or watch cooking shows?), or maybe you just love to eat? Could you wax poetic about a knock-your-socks-off cookie (or beer, or cheese...)? Could you do it in 10,000 words? How about three?
Would you like to learn about coffee? Where it comes from? About how processing, roasting. blending, freshness and preparation all affect what we taste in the cup? Really? Do you think it would be cool to travel to an origin country (where the coffee is hand-picked off the trees)? Are you curious about how things work, how things can be improved? Do you like to read (or at least look stuff up on wikipedia)? Do you like to share what you learn, to teach others?
Do you like to make stuff? Are you inventive, creative, artistic? Do you dig (or make) some kind of art, or design, or craft? Do you look for beauty in your life? Do you got style?
Can you take responsibility for your work? Do you look for ways to be "in the zone", at one with yourself and your task, when time flies? Do you take pride in a job well done? What about the not-so-glamorous jobs, like scrubbing out coffee urns, and cleaning the bathroom, can you do those too?
Can you get up early in the morning (and function)? Not all our shifts are super early ones, but a lot of them are. Can you be on your feet for long stretches without pooping out. Are you dependable? Can your co-workers rely on you?
And finally, do you plan on sticking around a while? Cause it might take you a while to become a kick-ass barista. If you made it this far though, we think you might be awesome!
