      Asset Protection Specialist Interview

      Sep 9, 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Pottstown, PA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Best Buy (Pottstown, PA)

      Interview

      This is a 2 step interview process. First with your supervisor, than with the GM of the store. They will make you wait a few minutes before interviewing you to test you patience. The interview itself consists of just basic question about your past work experience and personality. Dress nice and be friendly and the interview should not be difficult.

      Question 1

      Describe a time where you had a conflict with a customer.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Best Buy (Houston, TX)

      Interview

      3 interviews in total.. seems a bit excessive and absurd for a retail position, not even a management position. First 2 interviews were in person and third interview was with GM

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Hartford, CT) in Dec 2019

      Interview

      Very Straightforward. I found it to be less intimidating than most other interviews I have been on. Be prepared to answer some basic questions about honesty and your tolerance for breaking the rules. Spoiler alert: There can be no tolerance for breaking rules or dishonesty in this position.

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Los Angeles, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Best Buy (Los Angeles, CA) in Jul 2018

      Interview

      Applied for a full-time position after being part-time for over a year, and felt that my manager who was doing the interview did not fully grasp the responsibilities and of Asset Protection. The answers they were looking for were not reflective of the realities of the job.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      "If an associate continues to not perform their hourly shrink/safety walks, how would you go about getting them to do so?"
