Question 1
Who is the person that you have developed the most?
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Grand Rapids, MI) in Jan 2017
Interview
Phones interview process was painful and extremely specific to weed out many external candidates. Be prepared for in-depth, metric-based questions designed to give the unprepared lower standardized scores. In-person interview goes a little further in-depth around specific management experience and achievements. This was more of what would expect for a salaried management interview.

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Best Buy (Columbus, OH)
Interview
Online application, in person interview with the store manager, final interview with district level leadership. Standard questions for retail leadership, some "how would you handle this situation" questions. Success seems to depend on how well of a "fit" you are with the store leadership.
