And totally agree with that! I got my first barista job just by chatting with the staff and showing enthusiasm. It helps to learn about the place’s vibe — any favorite coffee spots in DC you’d recommend, @amelia_c90?

I’ve got to say, building a rapport with the staff definitely helped me land my last barista job. It’s all about that vibe! Plus, being quick with the espresso machines can really make you stand out when applying. @amelia_c90, it sounds like you had a great approach.
