I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (San Antonio, TX) in Apr 2014
Interview
I had worked for Best Buy before as a Wireless Sales Consultant in a big box store for almost a year while in my final year of high school and enjoyed it very much. When I decided I was moving back to my original city I looked for employment opportunities with Best Buy and saw a Lead Sales Consultant job for a Stand Alone Best Buy Mobile store. I applied online and was called within 2 weeks; we set up a time for a phone interview then and after that set up an interview with the store's GM and the District Manager. 4 days later I received a call from the GM offering me the position.
