I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Best Buy
Interview
The interview process is divided into 3 steps. You first apply through your website, or hand-in your cv to the desired store.
One week later, you will receive an interview phone call. The person will ask a series of questions about your past jobs, and how you handle customer services.
If the phone interview went well, you will be asked to come in-store and have an interview with one of the three managers of the store.
If you pass it, you will be hired.

Question 1
They always tend to start with the "tell me about yourself" where you essentially pitch yourself in 90 seconds or less.
Star method questions. Depending on the location they each have a very different interview process. The first two were more lengthy and expected you to do a demonstration or convincing them to buy something whereas my third interview at a different location was very laid back.

Question 1
Why Bestbuy and can you tell me about your last experience.
It was not too long and was a good process. They asked me about eight questions so that was not bad at all. Just make sure you act professionally and be positive throughout the process is what’s most important of all.
