I applied online. I interviewed at Guitar Center (Paramus, NJ) in Sept 2015
Interview
Applied online through their pre-screening (position specific questionnaires). I received a follow up phone call within the next week and set up an interview. The interview was conducted in a group setting, and featured almost entirely vague/seemingly unrelated questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you could have one product in the store for free, what would it be?
Well thought out interview pretty easy, I thought it went well but didn't get offered a position. I still feel like they are a good company although I heard they changed there commission structure in the past few years.
Simple and to the point. They want to know if you fit into the company culture. They also want to know what your skill set is as far as musical ability. It is very easygoing and relaxed
I interviewed at Guitar Center (North Olmsted, OH)
Interview
Felt like I was being interrogated or discriminated against, as if this were an important career. Dude, you hire high school students. Give me a break. Avoid applying to guitar center.
