      Geek Squad, Advanced Repair Agent (ARA) Interview

      19 July 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chesapeake, VA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Best Buy (Chesapeake, VA) in July 2016

      Interview

      I applied online. I got a call about a week later to go in for an interview. The interview went great. They didn't ask me any technical questions. They said they would make their decision to hire me or not a couple days later. They never called or emailed me. It took me calling them 2 times for them to send me an email saying they turned me down. I have an associates degree in IT and I am a 8 year military veteran. I have no idea what standards they use to hire people but they clearly have zero to do with qualifications or leadership skills.
