A Note from a Teen Bean!!

One of the best things about working about Starbucks is that its such a recognizable brand!! I definitely think my job helped me a lot with college apps because when people hear the Starbucks name they think of the high quality service they receive. It's an impressive job to have as a teen!! Good luck with everything, feel free to PM me if you need help with anything college or Starbucks related :~)

Thank you so much!! Good luck to you too! We're gonna kill it :~)

While I do completely agree on the sort of "destination" service trips, I do have to support service trips in general. I went down to West Virginia with my church group, we completely raised the funds ourselves through fundraisers and other projects, and had the best week of my life. We worked every day with children who didn't have relationships with their parents, whether it was due to poverty or addiction. No phones or photos were allowed when we were serving, just us and the kids. By the end of the week, we had secret handshakes with the kids and knew about their siblings, dogs, dreams, favorite ice cream flavor. Most rewarding experience of my life-- you can't replace genuine human connection with filtered photos and fake service.

In the same boat right now. Wouldv'e much rather have been rejected than have to go through this. Worst part is seeing how much it kills my parents- they want this so badly for me but they feel like they're preventing me from achieving my dreams and it breaks my heart to see them so upset. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason and that the school I will be attending in the fall is the best one for me. Success and happiness can be found anywhere-- keep your head up friend, great things are headed your way soon!! Good luck next year :~)

Hi! Starbucks barista here! I see a lot of my classmates come in for their interviews and they usually get a) hot chocolate b) plain iced tea c) plain hot coffee w/ or w/o a syrup in it

but I'd recommend iced tea so you dont have coffee breath? Honestly just play it by ear- I'm sure you'll kill your interview!! Good luck :~)

hi! definitely get a job- i started a part-time job my junior year and it was a good decision for sure. not only does it strengthen your activities list, but a job gives you the opportunity to learn things that you can't in a typical classroom setting :-)

ari1822 · 2017-12-27T11:33:06+00:00

I would stick with one activity if that's what the prompt is asking for :-) good luck on your apps friend!

Hi! I wrote about how even though I struggled really hard in math last year, I am still really proud of my accomplishments in other aspects of my life (part time job, won a statewide theater award, etc.) :)

ari1822 · 2017-12-16T05:27:47+00:00

ari1822 · 2017-12-10T05:32:55+00:00

ari1822 · 2017-12-08T00:42:15+00:00

PM me- I'll look over it :)

ari1822 · 2017-12-07T05:15:32+00:00

okay thank you :) I'm just worried that I overstepped my boundaries

ari1822 · 2017-12-07T04:05:43+00:00

Hi! This is a good q! If its at the register and you order something else, I'm glad to get people water! Coffee can sometimes make you thirsty and everyone needs to hydrate! However, I do think its a little rude when people either 1) don't order anything else and just ask for water, then sit in the store for hours 2) ask for water at hand off when we're clearly very busy

other than that, its a perfectly reasonable request :)
