Interview
I applied for a few positions at different Best Buys, im 19 years old and have had a few jobs before but this is a job i've wanted for a long time. i had a different interview at another location that was farther and i got the job as a Mobile Sales associate but i had my eye on my local best buy, i get a call directly from the GM asking for me to come in the next day. i come to the interview wearing a nice dress shirt and pants with a pair of Louboutins ( lol i know but they are nice) there was a fellow next to me waiting for an interview and he was just dressed as an average joe (what???) for some reason his interview lasted 5 minutes. I go in with the GM and she was very nice, let me sit in the nice chair as she sat in a regular plastic one. i share a little bit of my background with her as she does as well. i had originally applied for a inventory specialist but i asked about doing some type of electronic sales because thats my specialty, i know everything tech! the interview was lasting a good 15-20 minutes and i was thinking in my head that i did pretty good but i probably wouldn't be getting the job based on her questions. She just offers me a position in Computer Sales and i immediately accept! i start this Wednesday and im super excited! Cheers!
