Starbucks wants a Bachelor's degree for a barista - eviltoast

I guess they want them to start spelling people’s names correctly.

    No if I qualified it would say “bachelor’s degree” in green. I only have associates so when they want it, it is green and says matching qualifications. If I click on the orange button, it says you may not have all the qualifications.

    On the indeed app you can filter by qualifications, so this doesn’t come up.

      Pretty sure this is a situation where you can just lie with impunity. Is sbucks gonna call up a college and demand records of your fake degree in egyptology?

        Background checks include education verification. The service they use would do this. Most employers do this.

        Pretty sure they automate it. I know Spotify uses an API to verify your enrollment in college. I’d bet they could do the same for degree verification.

            Ha! Sorry, I should’ve expanded on that… they have a student tier that’s discounted, and they use an automated service to verify you’re a legit student.
