The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Best Buy (Boynton Beach, FL) in Nov 2011
Interview
Applied online. Received a call about a week later from the manager to schedule an interview. Interviewed by both the Operations Manager and the Geek Squad manager. Interview was about 30 minutes and focused on your abilities to complete the tasks at hand and your contribution to the company. Two days later, I received a call from the Operations Manager stating that he would like to hire me. Accepted the offer, and gave me a brief explanation over the phone about pay. Then he scheduled me to come in for orientation. Orientation consisted of a group of others applying for different positions within the store and applied to the work ethics and goals of the company.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Mesquite, TX)
Interview
The interview process was bleak and non-informative. I always thought that Geek Squad was going to be an amazing opportunity, but the interview gave way to a different perspective. They asked the typical retail interview questions without any feeling or excitement as if they were used to the routine and left me with feelings of second guessing what I was getting into exactly.
