I applied online. The process took 11 months. I interviewed at Best Buy (New York, NY) in Jan 2023
Interview
The Best Buy sales associate interview process typically involves three stages: a phone or video screening, an in-person interview with a supervisor or team lead, and a final in-person interview with the store's general manager. You should also expect a preliminary personality questionnaire, a background check, and potentially a drug test. The interviews focus on customer service skills, handling difficult situations, teamwork, and your personality and availability.
They asked about my resume and why I’d be a good fit. I highlighted my relevant experience, strong work ethic, and enthusiasm for the role, showing how I could contribute immediately.
Video interview, 8 questions, with time to think about an answer. This is the interview before another interview. The questions were easy and not difficult, I haven’t gotten a call for the second interview.
