      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy in Aug 2009

      Interview

      It was a phone interview, I first missed the call since my cell phone battery was died out one me before I can answer the phone. I called back immediately once my battery charged. I told the manager i missed their phone called and apologize on top of that. He said someone will call back in few minutes.(It took a half hour) I realize that my phone was vibrating in my pocket I missed the call again but called back once I missed it apologize again. I wasn't prepared for a phone interview it came at out of no where. I given a series of question of my past job occupations. Then give questions of my availability and why I wanted the job? I told him I'm heavily looking for work and really want the job. He asked me what department i would like to work ?i told him that I'm available in any job setting they would like to put me. However, i told him that i would like to work with the computer department. Then he asked what would do if a customer wanted to purchase a computer? (can't remember answer too nervous) Then he asked what would you do if a customer didn't know about computers? I told him that i'll ask what price range are they looking to afford. My initial answer should have been "I WOULD TEACH THEM WHAT A COMPUTER IS AND WHAT IT DOES". He said he will call me for an interview as of today(8/23/2009) It has been several days and I've still haven't received a phone call.

      I interviewed at Best Buy (Rochester, MI)

      Interview

      It was not too long and was a good process. They asked me about eight questions so that was not bad at all. Just make sure you act professionally and be positive throughout the process is what’s most important of all.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Best Buy in Feb 2026

      Interview

      Applied for the job online, then immediately got an email to do a video interview within 5 days. There is no interviewer, it's just you responding to the questions on the screen as it records you. It gives you a moment to practice if you want. There are 8 questions. You have 10 seconds to read the question, then 2 minutes to respond. At least you can click the button if you want to continue, giving you time to think or take a breather before you answer the next question.
