I applied online. I interviewed at Best Buy (New York, NY) in Feb 2018
Interview
Very easy and fast process. HR is helpful and very clear on instructions. You can always call and ask questions. Very friendly and professional. From start to finish I would say less than a week and you're good to go.
Very ordinary interview process, had a phone screen. Came into the store for a interview with the hiring manager. Heared back within a few days that I was offered the job.
