Interviewed Nov 2011 in Boynton Beach, FL (took a day)
Applied online. Received a call about a week later from the manager to schedule an interview. Interviewed by both the Operations Manager and the Geek Squad manager. Interview was about 30 minutes and focused on your abilities to complete the tasks at hand and your contribution to the company. Two days later, I received a call from the Operations Manager stating that he would like to hire me. Accepted the offer, and gave me a brief explanation over the phone about pay. Then he scheduled me to come in for orientation. Orientation consisted of a group of others applying for different positions within the store and applied to the work ethics and goals of the company.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Miami Beach, FL (took a day)
They asked scenario questions "what would you do in such such situation" and based on your answer they will aske another question based on that response. The process was a phone interview followed by a 1:1 then a group interview with 3 Best Buy employees (two managers and one supervisor)...
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Horrible, the starting pay is low... And they don't care much if you have college education or any kind of degree since supervisor and managers don't have them; they worked their way up the loser ladder. If you manage to get more than the base pay it will be a dollar at the most.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Boca Raton, FL (took 3 days)
Applied online for a job at Best Buy. I received a call about 5 days after applying, to set up an interview with a manager. The manager was friendly and the interview was easy with basic questions about previous work experience, and how I'd provide excellent customer service. This only took about 20-30 minutes. After the interview, the manager told me he liked the interview, and so he had me set up another interview with the store manager. The second interview only took like 10 minutes and was really easy. The store manager offered me a job right after the interview.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Wellington, FL (took a day)
I was called a few days after I applied online. They called me into the store and I sat with a manager who asked me questions about my previous retail sales experience, my knowledge about electronics, experiences with customers, etc. He then told me they would call me back to set up an interview with the Store Manager. I was actually called about an hour later asking to come back in that very same day. The Store Manager asked me questions like "describe a time when you went above and beyond to help a customer," and he asked questions about what would I do if I ever caught an employ stealing something like a DVD player or as small as a candy bar.

Negotiation Details
The highest pay rate they offered at the time way $9.50 to start out, and that's what the offered me.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Miami, FL (took 2 days)
First was a brief phone interviewon a tuesday, then the lady said to show up for an interview with one of the managers on thursday. That interview went rather well, quite easy no too stressful. All questions revolved around past customer experiences. Lasted about 10 mins. After the first interview was done he said to come back tomorrow for an interview with the GM (general Manager). So i went back on friday and that interview was rather quick, i would say it lasted anywhere between 5-8 mins, not sure if thats a good thing or a bad one. Anyways the GM just asked about past work experience and a couple of the same questions the manager asked me on the first interview.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Aventura, FL (took a day)
Had initial phone interview with HR, then it took them a while to get back to me. I came in and they said they had two jobs they were hiring for, so I would be meeting with two different teams. I had 30-45 minute interview with 4 different people. It took them a few weeks before they wrapped up their process and I received my offer

Interviewed Jun 2008 in West Palm Beach, FL (took 2 days)
Had a recommendation. Went in and interviewed with one manager. Asked specific questions about what kind of improvements I had made in my current position at my current job at that time. Was offered the job and an hourly rate that they said I must keep confidential because it was more than the other supervisors were making.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
They offered more money then my current job but the atmosphere did not seem as fun or like there was as much opportunity for advancement.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Boca Raton, FL (took 1 week)
I applied on-line and took the mandatory personality test on a Sunday. By Tuesday I was called by an HR person who did a basic interview asking me about my interest in working for Best Buy, what hours I'd be available and what departments I'd be interested in, we then scheduled a 1:1 interview for that Friday.
I met with the Customer Relations Manager who was nice; he asked several questions pertaining to customer and interpersonal relationships, some of the questions required a bit of thought though. He then said he would call in a few days to schedule a third interview, which I'm currently waiting for.
