Interview Details – Great interview process, easy and thorough. Asked great questions relating to the job so I could use my experience. For Mobile stand alone stores, potential employees have one interview but for Big Box Stores, potential employees have two or more interviews with an assistant manager and then the general manager.

Negotiation Details – There was no negotiating phase as hourly wages are set based upon position.

Wireless Sales Consultant at Best Buy

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Miami Beach, FL Oct 2011 – Reviewed Oct 10, 2012

Interview Details – It whole process was pretty fast, Consisted of three interviews; one phone and two in person. The phone interview is really quick to get a feel of you. The 2nd interview is with a manager and the recruiter in which they ask you several situational questions. The last interview is with the General Manager in which he/she will ask you the same questions. If you pass all that when congrats you have the job! Just make sure your pee is clean!

Interview Question – Why do you want to work for best buy? How should you interact with a manager? Do you know how to close a sale? Tell me about a time you dealt with a rude customer, how did you handle it?   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – It's depends on where you're from, so for example I'm in Miami so the they're minimum is 9 an hour. If you put something higher they most likely will give it to you ( 9.25 or 9.50)

Wireless Sales Consultant at Best Buy

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in May 2008 – Reviewed Jan 18, 2010

Interview Details – The interview consisted of 3 interviews. The first interview was a phone-interview, and it consisted of asking a bit about my past, and why I wanted to work at Best Buy. Honestly, there wasn't much to this interview. The next one was a 1:1 interview with a floor manager. I was asked to pretend I was a salesman and I am trying to sell a pen to the interviewer. I was also asked about how I would deal with difficult questions and what I might do if I realized my knowledge was lacking in certain areas. When the interviewer found out I was a pilot, the interview essentially ended and we just talked about flying after that. Finally, I had like a 2 minute interview with a GM, and she asked how much I was looking to make hourly. She accepted my offer, and she gave me the job pending passing a drug test and background test.

Interview Question – Take my pen. I want you to sell me this pen. Convince me that I need this particular pen, and convince me that no other pen will serve me better.   Answer Question
