      Cashier Interview

      Dec 8, 2011
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Best Buy in Oct 2010

      Interview

      I applied online for a seasonal position, and got the call the next day. I was asked a few questions on the phone about my availabilty, which department I wanted to work in, and other general questions like that. I came in for my interview about two days later, and had an interview with one of the managers. He asked general interview questions such as "What do you like and dislike about working in a team?", "If I asked one of your previous teachers or coaches about what you could improve on, what would they say?", and he also said that it's usually hard for them to justify hiring someone with no experience, such as myself, so he wanted to know why he should hire me. After the first interview I was asked back for a second interview that same day with the GM. Second interview asked a few of the same questions as the first. Also asked what department I was interested in working it. Even though I applied for a cashier position they hired me as a sales associate. The GM made the job offer that day. I've been working at Best Buy for a little over a month now and I love it. It's stressful at times but my coworkers and the managment make it fun at the same time. So far I have no complaints.

      I interviewed at Best Buy (Toronto, ON)

      Interview

      Was not hard. Asked simple behavioural questions and wanted to grasp if I could handle high-pressured environments to be able to handle work on days such as Black Friday. Mostly just talked about my past experience in retail!

      It wasn’t bad at all. It was just a few quick questions about my past experience and whether or not I would be able to work part or full time, stuff like that.
