Just remember to be task oriented. Socializing is okay, but only if there is nothing else to do, as with any job.

What I liked
The fact that I get to nerd out with as well as teach clients about technology. The discount for someone who loves technology is a doubled-edged sword in which its great for fufilling your desire to have more technology but not for your wallet.
What I wish was different
There definitely needs to be a bigger push in making it easier for college students to balance their time working there while in school. A flexible schedule provided by Best Buy while nice it is not perfect considering that closing times and part time hour requirments can come in conflict with class scheduling.

August 2017 • Lincoln, NE
What I liked
Learning how to do something new every day- facing new challenges kept me on my toes so I was never doing the exact same thing.
What I wish was different
I wish I could have had more experience on the salesfloor- unfortunately there weren't any positions open when I initially applied.
Advice
I would advise anyone in a field of customer service to not take customer frustrations to heart- we all get flustered as consumers, and that's easy to forget. Keeping your cool and being able to laugh things off is crucial.
