What does Best Buy pay Part Timers?
 

I know there are some Best Buy employees around. I am thinking of applying to work Part time. My guess is about $8.50?

Just curious why you think it would be so much higher than minimum wage.

The amount Best Buy pays you varies upon which Best Buy you work at. I hear a lot of people in the west work for minimum wage there, but when they started opening up here in the NY/NJ/CT area they paid more than that. I worked there a few years ago when I was 19 and I think I started out at around 9 an hour if I remember correctly.

It probably depends on location. I have a friend that is a manager of one of the departments and only makes $9.50/hour. I think the pay in the North is higher, perhaps due to cost of living.

I am guessing its around $8.50 because you have to sell warranties, reward zone, zero financing.....and somebody just mentioned they worked at Best Buy and said they thought $9.00

I bought a major appliance at Best Buy a few weeks ago, and they didn't even pitch the BB warranty to me...I was so impressed, I almost (repeat: ALMOST!) asked about it...

I wonder if they've told employees to lay off, given all the bad press they've gotten about trying to force warrantees down people's throats.

You guys must have nice Best Buy stores because the one here didnt pay squat. I think the store here pays slightly higher than minimum wage.

My cousin works at BestBuy on a part-time basis. It, also, depends on what you do. He builds/repairs computers. He makes $11.XX, per hour. Sorry, I don't remember the exact figure; I just know it's eleven dollars and change.

A friend of mine worked at a Best Buy in Des Moines two years ago, they started him at $7.50 or $8.

Depends on location of store, your experience in that particular position and the cost of living in that state.
