Best Buy Cashier Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – They call you for a basic screening, If accepted you will be called in for an in-store interview. You will likely interview with several supervisors and managers and eventually with the General Manager. This process can take a few days or a few weeks depending on the situation

Negotiation Details – Sell yourself

Interview Details – First met with manager of cashiers, then interviewed with second-in-command manager. Lastly, wuth general manager. Lots of behavioral questions

Negotiation Details – They laid out terms: not a lot of negotiation

Interview Details – Received a phone call from a supervisor, then was told I had an interview with a manager, did fine on that interview then moved up to the General Manager. He asked detailed questions. I was told he would call next day. No call came then I called day after and was told he hired all the positions already. And I have 10 years experience behind a cash register. HA!

Interview Details – Quick phone interview. Checked qualifications/ why work for Best Buy. 1:1 interview/manager arrived late. Situational questions. How how well do you work with co workers? Can you work holiday schedule without time off? Tell me about a problem you solved? Advice: Dress business casual. Office was casual, not clean.

Negotiation Details – Company willing to negotiate hourly wage. Company pretty rude about wages. Seasonal staff get lower wage than regular part-time workers.

Interview Details – Simply, put in an application online and got a call back the next day, which is the "first interview". They ask about hours, which area you want to work in and availability overall. Set up the interview for a couple of days later. Dressed up as nicely as possible and initially, the manager for the area I would have been working in was impressed. She was very nice and instantly got set up for the third interview. All of her questions were rather standard-ish; "Tell me about a time you worked in a group?", "Tell me about a time when you worked with someone you didn't get along with?", "Tell me about a time you went above and beyond for a customer". She asked about previous experience, which I had and told her I had previous experience working with electronics and selling "add-ons". I think this is what really sold me to her.

The "third interview" did not go so well. It was with the store manager and he was rather brisk, seemed as if he had a short fuse. Right off the bat, I felt uncomfortable and it set the attitude for the whole interview. He asked me the dread, "Tell me about yourself?" and then a few questions about my previous experience with sales. We ended the interview with the worst overall question, "Sell me this stapler." There was no scenario setting for this and I was utterly lost about what to say, since he didn't set any background. Of course I blew it, he was nice about it and told me that they'd call me back when he got together with the other manager who had interviewed me to make decisions; which I knew was a lie, because she had personally told me she was going on vacation in the next few days. So I was never called back, no surprise. They seem like a decent company to work for from the interview, but very competitive. This is not the company to work for, if you're shy. Be prepared to sell yourself hard in this interview and dress as nice as possible.

Interview Details – good process. applied online, got a call back in a couple days to set up an initial interview with hiring coordinator. after that interview was done, had a 1 on 1 with the general manager, and after a drug test, was hired.

Interview Details – Upon turning in my app, I was called 3 days later by a floor manger. Was asked several questions about past work experience, and certain situations. Was set up for interview with Frontline manager for the very next day. Interviewed in person with her, and was offered job upon passing drug, and background check that day. Once passed, started work 2 days later.

Negotiation Details – There was none. I was offered more than I asked for.

Interview Details – I applied at Best Buy in June 2009. The hiring manager called me back a week later and we scheduled an interview for the next day. I met with the manager and he seemed irritated that I was there. He then asked a lot of questions that seemed completely irrelevant to the position I was applying for. I stayed polite and tried to answer to the best of my abilities, but he seemed uninterested in me. To my surprise, he then said he would be in touch for a second interview. I kept my hopes up, but I should of known it was just a formality, as I never heard back from the company. Waste of time.

Interview Details – I applied online at 4pm and they literally called me back a hour later asking me to come i for a interview with a manager. During the interview there were allot of "what would you do" situational type of questions. I managed to do good on the first and got to skip the second. But it took them a week and a half later to let me know i got a 3rd interview but went and interviewed with another manager and he offered me a job on the spot and know im waiting for the drug test and background to go through and I start the LONG 20 hour training.
