Got promoted - ♦๖ۣۜZèÞ* - Aug 8, 2016
After applying for a few jobs within company I finally got a promotion. I was a GeekSquad consultation agent since 16 (youngest ever hired) I have now been promoted to an Advanced repair agent at my local store so I no longer have to be the "face" of GeekSquad and talk to every person. Just simply do the actual repairs. The pay is so much better and it's for sure a way better job.

The last time I spoke to a geek squad agent I got brain cancer. I've never cringed/triggered as much as that day and that's why I think 90% of Geeksquad agents are as casual as most tech YouTubers (MKBHD). They like large numbers and more cores.

This is the third promotion thread I've seen today.
Congratulations, I'm sure you earned it.

Congratulations on the promotion man, hope you like it better. :)
I myself can't wait to get a job, it's a real bitch to want things but not having money to buy it lol.

That's good to hear. I have to start looking for a job soon. I might check out the local Best Buy.

How much is the pay? I am looking for a better job and need to search into more industries.
Anyway, congrats on your happiness and hope it goes well.

Congratulations on the promotion. Hard work pays off. Although, I have to say Geek Squad is one of biggest bunch of rip off artists in electrical repair. Bought a TV with warranty and the GS protection plan and they couldn't even replace it when it got nicked and wanted me to shove out over $300 in repairs for something I thought I already paid for.

I've had my bad experiences with Geek Squad in the past, but I know that there are honest people who work for them and your hard work hasn't gone unnoticed.

How much is the pay now? Glad to hear you're getting some sort of recognition for your work!

Nice man, congrats on the promotion ;)

Our pay range for ara Is 12-21$ an hour
The front is 10.50-14 I believe.
I can agree GeekSquad can be a rip off but I am honest with customers. Also it's a good job and does look good on most resumes
