The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy (Houston, TX) in Sep 2009
Interview
Received a phone interview a few hours after filling out the web application. Web application has ~50 personality questions, takes a little while. Phone interview consisted of a few simple questions, such as why do I think I'd be good there, why would I want to work there, and so on. Going in for an in person interview tomorrow.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Best Buy in Feb 2007
Interview
The interview started with an online application, and an automated phone interview to follow up. After a friend recommendation, there was a 1 on 1 interview that consisted of the interviewer asking the interviewee typical questions a customer might ask when buying a home entertainment system.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy in Aug 2009
Interview
I put in an online applications about 1 to 2 months before I was contacted. On the day of the interview I came in about 15 to 30 minutes early because I had to ride the local transit to get there. I had to wait for about 15 to 30 minutes after the scheduled time of the interview for the interviewer to get to me. I don't know why, though. I only got one interview and they told me if the needed me they would call me in for another interview. It's been about a month now and I still have not been contacted. I called a bout 2 times for about 4 weeks and was unable to talk to someone who could tell me anything. My overall opinion on that experience is that it was horrible and a complete waste of time. The people were nice enough but I just couldn't seem to make any progress with them.
