In person interview was relaxed and very casual. If you have worked in the customer services field in another company you will do fine. Basic interview questions like why you want to work here and stuff, etc.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Deer Park, IL (took 1 week)
My first interview was on the application offline. It was a series of questions that one had to answer Strongly Agree or Strongly Disagree.. whenever you are given a series of questions like that on an application never answer Agree, Disagree, or Neutral. Your answers MUST be Strongly Disagree or Strongly Agree. They called me and said I had passed the first interview and was moving on to the next interview in the store and to dress business casual. The next interview I had with someone from Geek Squad. He was super nice and asked me about 10 questions. After the interview he told me if I had meet their standards he would give me a call within the next 48 hours for the final interview with the General Manager. And well, that is where I am right now. I have the final interview in a few hours and I am a bit nervous.. hope I get it! Wish me luck :)

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Garland, TX (took 3 days)
Started with an online application and personality test. Remember that on the Unicru test, "Agree" and "Disagree" are always wrong, choose "Strongly Agree" or "Strongly Disagree". About a week later, if you pass the Unicru test, you get a brief phone interview. If that goes well, they'll call you back for a preliminary interview with a supervisor. The supervisor might refer you to another position if they see that you might be a better fit for another position. The second interview is with a manager of the department that you are applying for. After that, you have an interview with the GM where you negotiate salary and availability. Just pass the drug test, and it's off to orientation.
