Asset Protection at Best Buy

Applied for job , got job

It seems alot of jobcasers are confused about how "Employment" actually works.....

Step #1. Locate an available position... Example: NOW HIRING sign in a window..... Search http//:*COMPANY/careers *Target/Walmart/Sears/ect.. Find your local location...... Then apply

Step #2. Complete any requirements.. Take & PASS any & test ..... Online assessment (if job requires a valid driver's license, then have one)

Step #3 . When they call....(& They will if both step #1&2 are done correctly) Step #3.A answer the call...(seems easy... For any sane person not afraid to answer calls from "unknown number")..... Step #3.B arrange for an interview ..... And show up for said interview

Step #4. Present yourself as a not crazy person...... Do NOT complain about every past job/boss ....In fact (Never a good suggestion , but LIE if needed in rather than complain....)

Now if you've done all this.... Step #5. GREAT!! You've aced their honesty exams...Made a super impressive candidate during one or more interviews....NOW ..... Be prepared.....

PROVIDE A CLEAN U.A. Yep......Clean peepee....

Then...... I suggest show up at the agreed time for scheduled hours.... Stay until agreed time.... Follow your supervisor's directions.... And really the rest is easy......

Really, Bob? I think your obvious "suggestions" are really condescending. I'm pretty sure most jobcasers have more intelligence than a turtle, so your advice is really insulting to people even with "average intelligence". And what's with the bathrobe, like your some kind of super-intellect bestowing wisdom on the "unwashed masses" ?? I'm really offended with you, Bob and your condescending advice.

Rob -

Congratulations on your new job! I agree that common sense is important in these situations, but unfortunately, in today's crazy world common sense isn't common anymore with a lot of people. Nonetheless, people need to really apply themselves to stand out.

Good feedback to other jobcasers.
