I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Guitar Center (Albany, NY) in Jan 2014
Interview
I called to schedule an interview, and was promptly forgotten. Had to keep calling back to get an interview, then came in for my 2nd only to find the manager had gone home for the day. Tried again, ended up getting the job after a month of phone tag.
Well thought out interview pretty easy, I thought it went well but didn't get offered a position. I still feel like they are a good company although I heard they changed there commission structure in the past few years.
Simple and to the point. They want to know if you fit into the company culture. They also want to know what your skill set is as far as musical ability. It is very easygoing and relaxed
I interviewed at Guitar Center (North Olmsted, OH)
Interview
Felt like I was being interrogated or discriminated against, as if this were an important career. Dude, you hire high school students. Give me a break. Avoid applying to guitar center.
