I applied in-person. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at GameStop (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2015
Interview
The whole process took about a week. I went into GameStop on a Tuesday when they were pretty empty to pick up a game I preordered. I asked while I was paying if they were hiring and received an application for the last position they had open for seasonal. I was asked to come in for an interview while I was getting the application on the following Saturday at 2pm. When I came back on Saturday they were pretty empty again. I talked with two of the employees working at the back of the store while the manager skimmed over my application pretty quickly. I was taken to the back room and had somewhat of an informal interview where I was sitting and the manager was standing and taking notes. The actual interview took about 10 - 15 minutes where I was offered a position by the end. They took some basic info down for the job and told me whenI would have my first shift and I was on my way.
Share a time you gave exceptional customer service, and if you haven't had this experience when is a time you've received exceptional customer service?
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.
