I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Canoga Park, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
The interviewer was very friendly but told me from the beginning that all his questions were standard questions that they have asked everyone. He had a packet and each page had a questing. He'd ask a questions and then I had to wait for him to write down my answer. Most of the questions were regarding customer service. Very generic.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to go above and beyond for a customer?
First interview was simple, waited in the employee break room for a few minutes and then moved into another room for the interview. Basic interview questions, and a few situational questions. If you have worked in a similar retail environment before, than it should be easy to come up with answers to the questions by sharing specific stories from your last few jobs. Advice is to be articulate, I received positive interview feedback for doing this.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Best Buy (Burlington, ON)
Interview
There was one phone interview that happened 7 days after I submitted my resume. It was very standard questions around availability and past jobs. Then there was a face to face interview with the store manager
