Applied online through Bestbuy.com website. Application was standard: Personal info, education, skills, references, etc. There was a small personality test after filling out the application. Within 3 days I recieved a phone call and scheduled an interview for the following week. First interview consisted of meeting with an assistant manager and was followed with a meeting of the GM 3 days later. Meetings with both managers consisted of questions about certain skills relating to technological background and also communication skills. What managers look for in a sales specialist are: cool temperament (not easily angered), friendly personality, very team oriented, excellent communication skills, and a willingness to learn.
