The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy (Paramus, NJ) in Jul 2010
Interview
Had to wait a while, several people were interviewed before me, pretty straightforward.Asked me several questions, like about my previous work experience.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Best Buy in Sep 2008
Interview
Best Buy requires an on-line application with a personality test. If you pass those you go to a group interview. If they like you there you have a 1:1 interview with the store manager. A person only requires common sense to answer questions appropriately.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Best Buy in Jan 2008
Interview
First, you have to go online to the website and complete the online application (which can take up to an hour to finish). An employee, most likely one of the managers from the department that you applied for, may call you for an interview. After the main interview, you may be asked to do a second interview with the District Manager for that store. If all goes well, then they will call you back to go through the orientation process, which consists of watching a video with other fresh applicants that will tell you about the safety procedures and the company's overall motive. Best Buy does conduct urinalysis. The best advice for someone going to the interview would be to be polite and conversational.
