The overall process wasn’t hard. Applying online and then doing a video interview. Once you get called in everyone is pretty friendly and great at communicating what the job is.

Question 1
What’re your hobbies and enjoy doing in free time?
There were two interviews, and it was very easy and straightforward. The first interview was with a department manager, and the next interview was with the store leader. Good experience overall.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Best Buy (Bolingbrook, IL) in Nov 2019
Interview
It starts with an online application which is a bit lengthy. It involves some psychological questions that don't necessarily have any right or wrong answers. It tests how you would react in various situations. Once application is reviewed, I was given a call and an interview was scheduled with the GM of the particular location. The in person interview was pretty basic stuff. There were no tough questions and I was hired on the spot.
