I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Best Buy (Plano, TX)
Interview
It was a 2 part interview...the first part was very different...they interviewed in threes. It did allow me to see the other two people were...not likely very good with people, but it was also very impersonal. The second interview the store manager asked a few question then offered me the job.

Question 1
The question were all generic and basically just testing your ability to be social
Recorded interview: asked basic about me overview question, why best buy, and a few scenario question touching on customer privacy and respect. Overall very smooth, did not get a call back due to locations

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.
