Working At GameStop!

Yeah, this has almost nothing to do with the 360 but I have a very important question. How do I apply to work at Gamestop? I plan on getting a summer job in 2008. So can someone help from step one, like asking to get the job or something?

Oh and do they allow a guy to have long hair??? I have hair a few inches past my shoulders and I'm guessing that the manager might make me cut it before i work there. But my friends tell me everyone there is cool cuz we're all gamers but iono. This will be my first job so i'm nervous.

Another question is do they look at ur school grades?? I'm a junior in highschool right now, and have pretty below average grades. And yes, another godamm question, so how good is the pay??? I wanna get a job just so that I can buy games and fully enjoy the current gen games.

Thanks in advance.

lol. well better now than never. I dont need to pay for another one on welfare.......

you gotta be 16 to work at gamestop Mr_Wes32

if he is a junior in HS than chances are he is 16..but to give some advice..dont work at gamestop. find a job thats more flexible with your hours, and if your grades are bad then handling midnight game releases isnt going to help the situation. find a job at a restaurant ora grocery store

i was really thinking about applying there. i heard you can rent games for free or something like that.

but on ur application dont put much about you being a gamer cause they think they dont have good social skills

Actually, how is it there?? What's makes ur life so miserable just working there. It's better for me to hear from someone who actaully works there.

They pay crap. Usually minimum wage. Go work at a store like best buy or something.

Step 1: Go to the store's website.

Step 2: Find the link that says careers on bottom of the page.

Step 3: Find the application.

Step 4: Fill our the application.

Yeah, I barely turned 16 last sunday! And my friend is going to work at an albertson's soon so i might think about that. But those kinda places will surely make me cut my hair. What about McDonalds???? I might work there!ItKevin

sorry for the double post.. do NOT work at McDonald's.. i worked at one for like 5 mos. and it sucked.. you'll get minimum wage and you will have to work horrible hours.. for example one saturday i worked 3pm to 11pm and I had to work the next day starting at 8AM.. do not work there.. you will definitely have to cut your hair and you can't have facial hair(which i was definietly against) and I'm 16 too by the way.. but do not work there..

It all depends on the location and management. There's a McDonalds in Nisku out here where you start at $11.50 and the min.wage is $7 If you have long hair you just have to tie it back and put a hair net on

where's Nisku? anyway.. at the one I worked at we were always busy.. we brought in a lot of money and everyday after school.. the HS where I go to was right by the McD's where I worked and a lot of people went there and we got a lot of money, and everybody was supposed to get a raise beginning of October and about half the people didn't and quit(including me)..

It's south of Edmonton, Alberta. It's surrounded by oil rigs and truck stops so it does some good business but they used to have trouble getting employees because no one actually lives in Nisku lol, so their employess are either from Beaumont or Leduc, both are 10 mins. away from Nisku and now they have no troubles getting employees with how high they pay

Don't work at a GameStop. You'll hate your life. Trust me, I work at one now.D3R1N

So do you hate your life now? :shock:

16

You have to be 17 to work there.

Because M games are 17+, so you gotta be old enough to buy them.

Everybody there is a douche bag, hopefully your not.
