I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Best Buy (San Diego, CA) in Sep 2012
Interview
I received a call a few days after posting my application online and was asked to have a phone interview. The lady that called me asked me about my availability, whether I applied to any other stores, and so on. After it was done, I was scheduled for an interview that was held two days later. On the day of my one-on-one interview, I was greeted by a Geek Squad manager and was lead to the music room to begin my interview. He gave me paperwork with a list of agreements about the interview and the potential job I was applying for. After glancing through a couple of pages of my online application, he asked me a couple of basic questions. At the end, he described to me that the position I was applying for was full at the moment but the management is seeking potential workers to fill the spot when the current workers are promoted. He also noted that I will receive a call within 30 days if I was selected for the second interview. I was very nervous and tensed up as it was my first job interview but he tried to create a friendly and casual environment to ease me a bit.
Unorganized, akward waiting, but easy. They were very friendly and made me feel very welcomed. Very personable and open to new takes on boring questions. Nice people horrible pay scale.

Interview
Very thorough, as the interviewer knew the exact technical questions to ask to ensure their employees great success. Also the interviewer was a Geeksquad Manager that knew the ins and outs of the Geeksquad, so he was a right interviewer for the job
