I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GameStop (San Diego, CA) in Nov 2019
Interview
I was asked a serious of yes or no questions, followed by why do want to work here. They said they were still going applicants and will call me back when they were hiring. I called back a week later, they told me the same thing. Then two weeks went by, and they still told me the same thing. At this point, I know that they are lying to me, I don't know why they can't just say, "oh yea, you didn't get the job", instead making me have hope. It's been 3 weeks now. Don't apply to seasonal positions, I guess
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Our store have a lot of theft, would you be comfortable confronting someone who was stealing?
Why should we hire you?
Why do you want to work here?
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.
