Front-End Developer Interview Experience - Richfield, Minnesota
Process
About an hour long, the project manager and two of the senior devs sit around a table and ask questions pertaining to your history and experience. The guys are nice, as is the whole HQ. It's a very IT-based company, so know your stuff before you try to get an interview. Hope it helps.
Questions
Basic HTML questions and debugging at first, then moving into harder JavaScript. Prepare for whiteboard coding, as most of the interview is technical.
Question 1: var debugging such as:
javascript var bob = new bob(get.bob);

- 5.0Smart People, Corporate BureaucracyEngineering Director • Current EmployeeRichfield, Minnesota, United StatesNovember 7, 2023Pros: For being a large company, it is a good place to work. You will find the normal corporate issues, but overall people are very smart and work together.Cons: Normal corporate bureaucracy and financial constraints.
- 3.0Great work-life balance, lacking on the technology frontInformation Architect • Current EmployeeRichfield, Minnesota, United StatesJuly 30, 2012Pros: Best Buy's environment is ROWE (Results Only Work Environment), so you get your work done, then go home. That could be in 40 hours or 32 hours a week. You could come in at 10 AM and leave at 4 PM, just as long as you're getting your work done and people get what they need from you. Great flexible schedule, smart people, and a great campus.Cons: There are many contractors, so a lot of knowledge and history walk out the door when a project is completed. Many of the system's Best Buy uses are dated and need improvement. There is a lack of onboarding here as well for new employees.
