Need some advice on how to get a job at Best Buy.

[Dbowgrafx]

Hi I'm new here at CarAudio.com and I am convinced that there are a lot of experienced technicians here and I just wanted some advice on how to get my career started in this field. I am MECP Certified(Basic but expired - will renew) and I've been focusing on getting employed by Best Buy. I've took their application test about 100 times(literally), I do not have much experience. I've done a few radio, speaker, alarm installations for friends and family and I've done remote starters before. I am looking to gain more experience working with best buy. I want to start getting comfortable working with new cars(not being afraid of breaking anything).

If there is anyone who can give me any advice on how I should start my career with Best Buy or how to even get a job at Best Buy it would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

With things like that everytime there's an opening the guy who works there has a friend/buddy/cousin/brother that will most likey get the job first through a reference get to know some there and see if that gets you in.

Pretend like you know jack shit about car audio, but will still feel you have the right to talk down to customers like they are the idiots. That seems to be the qualifications for the job.

j/k

ind out who the manager of the car audio department is, approach him in person and tell him you have a real interest in making this your career and you'd like to do it with BB. Im sure the manager gets a lot of applications, but very few people with the drive, ambition and hunger to approach him/her personally.
