I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Beavercreek, OH) in May 2015
Interview
My interview was actually 4 different types. First, I discovered that Best Buy will mark down the people who actually call back about the job and that if you talk to a manager that is an interview - even if it only lasts for 5 minutes - and that phone conversation actually determines whether or not the hiring manager will even call you into the store for an interview. My second interview took place in the evening and lasted for 40 minutes. One thing I noticed and I don't know if this is important or not, is that they asked a lot of personnel questions such as "do you prefer Apple or PC and why?" or "what's your favorite piece of technology and why?"

Interview
Easy. Know basic computer skills and you’ll get the job. Office suite, Apple and windows. Know about smart home and home automation as well as you’ll be pulled to other departments.
Fairly straightforward, expect the normal interview style question. Always show up early it displays initiative. otherwise, trust your gut and skills most store managers are looking for honest, hardworking people.
