I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GameStop (Austin, TX) in May 2016
Interview
I applied online and got an email announcing a job fair day a few weeks later. I misjudged how many people would be there and ended up waiting around for about an hour, which was fine but it was somewhat hot in the store. When it was my turn I was lead into the back where three other interviews were taking place at the same time and was asked about eight questions dealing with customer service. I was told I would be contacted by the end of the next week either way, I was never contacted.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
What would other people say they like most about you? Least?
Met with the manager and interviewed. Good interview, professional, the questions were good and not invasive. The job seemed like a good fit but there were only a few positions open.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at GameStop (Fairfield, CA)
Interview
Standard questions given by the managers and assistant manager. Questions involving teamwork, managing time, and organization. Also, work history and education. Experience with last and current game consoles is a must. Relaxed environment while appearing business casual. No need to do an online application.
Applied online and then got a call to schedule interview. She asked me about what games I like, consoles I have, etc...Then she went over how strict the job is alongside the pay rate and I, for some reason, still said I wanted to work there.
