I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GameStop (East Brunswick, NJ) in Oct 2011
Interview
Went to the store and was told to wait a couple minutes before being brought into the back room to be interviewed by two men. One was manager and they went back and forth asking me general interview questions as well as specific video game questions. Pretty easy interview, straight forward. Took about 20-25 minutes however they never called me after the interview.

Interview
Had a quick phone interview to ask what my salary expectation where, and them stating I was asking too high, even though in the ad I was asking for the higher price they had. They informed me I would get the lower price, and asked me to arrive in person for an interview the next day. They proceed to cancel 2 hours before my interview when I was already on they way (transit).

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Personality questions regarding how you can motivate an employee to sell pro memberships and warranties on physical games nobody is buying
Very easy and straightforward if you’re into video games and technology. Normal questions aimed towards knowledge of that exact stuff. Manager most likely won’t seem too interested lol. It was still an easy interview though.
