      Human Resources Professional Interview

      Aug 11, 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Richfield, MN
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Richfield, MN)

      Interview

      Contacted by recruiter. Had a positive phone interview regarding background and experience. Then had phone panel interview with 3 peer level employees. Asked behavioral type questions "explain a time when'. Two weeks later, flew to Richfield for a panel interview with 7 Best Buy employees, Director an above. The panel interview was painful but the questions asked are the same questions that are listed on glassdoor, so that helped. After the panel, several weeks went by then received email from recruiter to set up phone interview with hiring manager, who had some follow up questions regarding management and communication style. That interview was more friendly. Was told they would make a decision in a week. Never heard back. Finally emailed recruiter who said they offered the position to an internal. Overall, the process was pretty painful...

      Question 1

      What is your weakness? How would you explain your management approach? Why should we hire you? A lot of 'explain a time when,,,,' questions
