      Media Specialist Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy in Jul 2009

      Interview

      When you walk in they tell customer service that you have an interview and they will tell you to wait for the hiring manager. When the hiring manager arrives they will talk to you a small room and ask you a series of questions. Ex. Tell me about a situation where you worked with a angry customer, tell me about a time when you worked as a team etc.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time when you dealt with an angry customer?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Why should we hire you?
      Answer question
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Chicago, IL)

      Interview

      I was excited to interview for a regular position after working there seasonally. Looking back, having to interview for a job I already had should have been a clue as to how disorganized things were. Hopefully it was just the store I interviewed at, and not the company as a whole.

      Question 1

      Do you have any questions

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy (Milwaukee, WI) in Aug 2018

      Interview

      They just basically chatted with me about myself. It was very casual. They asked a lot about what kind of music I like, so we talked about music a lot. This was years ago when Best Buy sold a lot of CDs.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What kind of music do I like.

      Media Specialist Interview

      Anonymous employee
      East Brunswick, NJ
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Best Buy (East Brunswick, NJ)

      Interview

      Applied online filling out a long personality test that I could not even pass again after I was hired. This proves that the process of selecting employees is unfair and does not reflect ability to do the job. First interviewed with manager, called back for GM interview and hired on the spot.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you saw an employee take money from the register, what would you do?
