The hiring process was quick and easy, I was hired and started my orientation within 2 weeks. I met with the supervisor, manager and GM. This was a 2 round interview process.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Strongsville, OH) in Aug 2012
Interview
They called me a few days after I applied, and a few days later I had an interview with a supervisor. A few days later, I had another with a GM, and I was sort of interviewed by a supervisor and manager who didn't seem to be aware I would be there. Had to wait 45 minutes or so for both interviews, but I understand that retail is busy. All of the people I spoke to were incredibly nice and I was offered a job at the end of the GM interview. I took my drug test that day... and then didn't hear from them for 3 weeks. Don't be concerned if they're slow getting back to you sometimes--retail is just very, very busy. If you're nice, they'll hire you.

Question 1
They just asked me what I liked and some very simple "what-if" customer service questions. I didn't get the "sell this pen" test.
