The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Best Buy (Alford, FL)
Interview
It was pretty easy honestly, I got a call the day after I applied online and was set up with a supervisor. When I went in he had a packet of questions to ask me and he was super friendly, we joked and had a great time together. He told me I was doing a lot better than other applicants. He set me up with the general manager for today and it was the same way, he had a packet of questions to ask me and it went amazingly! He was so nice and made me feel really comfortable:) Haven't gotten an offer but he said he we going to consult with the others and make a decision!

Question 1
They always tend to start with the "tell me about yourself" where you essentially pitch yourself in 90 seconds or less.
Star method questions. Depending on the location they each have a very different interview process. The first two were more lengthy and expected you to do a demonstration or convincing them to buy something whereas my third interview at a different location was very laid back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Bestbuy and can you tell me about your last experience.
It was not too long and was a good process. They asked me about eight questions so that was not bad at all. Just make sure you act professionally and be positive throughout the process is what’s most important of all.
