Application tips

There’s no special handshake or a secret code to get you a career at Costa. But there are a few things you can do to give your application and your interviews the best possible chance of succeeding.

Before You Apply
  • Visit your local Costa or Costa Express and grab a coffee. We don’t expect you to make your way through the whole menu, but it helps to be familiar with our products
  • Similarly, read up on our business. You should know we’re part of Whitbread, for example
  • Do a bit of research on our competitors. It’s not hard to work out who they are
Your CV
  • Craft your CV to Costa and the role you are applying for
  • Keep it concise and to the point, highlighting your most recent work experiences first
  • Tell us about any achievements you made in your previous roles
  • Mention your education, other professional qualifications and any awards you may have picked up along the way
  • Sprinkle a little personality by telling us about your interests and hobbies
  • Put your CV to one side, enjoy your evening and read it again with fresh eyes the next day
Ahead of your interview
  • Prepare some real-life examples that best highlight your skills and how you handle situations
  • Think a little more about why you want to join Costa, and what you want to achieve with us
  • Have a look to see if Costa is in the news. Scroll through our social media channels to see what we are saying
During your interview
  • Be yourself. One of the things that makes Costa special is that we all have our own personalities, so show us yours
  • Listen to our questions and stay focused when giving your answers. Don’t be afraid to ask for clarity if you don’t quite understand
  • Ask us questions. This is as much about finding out whether Costa is right for you
