I applied in-person. I interviewed at GameStop (Philadelphia, PA) in May 2011
Interview
When I interviewed for GameStop I was told to meet the district manager at a store that was not close to my home. I got there about 15 minutes early and let the employee of the store know I was there to meet with the DM. After about 45 minutes I was still waiting. I asked the store employee if he had heard from the DM and he stated that he hadn't but he would call. After the call I find out that the DM had "forgotten" about the interview and would need to reschedule it for the next day. Fast forward to the interview. It was a pretty straight forward interview focusing on my past retail experience and skills. The interview had very little to do with actual product knowledge, which was not a surprise. The interview lasted approximately and hour and a half.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There really weren't any difficult questions other than the usual suspects. But importantly there was one question that must not be answered a certain way:
Why do you want to work for GameStop?
Two interviews on zoom. One with store manager of different location, one with district manager. Was told after second interview I would have the job and would call me back with additional details. Never heard from them again.
I applied online. I interviewed at GameStop in Mar 2021
Interview
Interview process went great, I was told to hear back on their decision within 2-3 days of my final interview. I'm assuming I didn't get it because the company ghosted me.
I submitted my resume on the company website and received a call for an interview several weeks later. I didn't know what I was being interviewed for until I got to the location, which was very unusual. The interview was very generic, with the manager reading off a predetermined set of questions the entire time.
