I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Best Buy (Burnaby, BC) in Jun 2018
Interview
I found this job ad on Linkedin and applied Best Buy Canada on its career website. After 3 days, I got an email from HR and we did a quick chat on phone. We talked about the position and my experience. After that, she invited me to the in-person interview at the headquarter. It took 90 minutes. In the first session, I talked with unit team leader and product owner. The questions were related to my experience and the job qualifications. Interview questions were not so hard. They were kind and helpful to me. In the second session, I talked with the manager. Finally, HR called me that they decided not to move forward with me.
Made it pretty far in the interview process but the panel round was humiliating. Not a group of guys I would want to work with in the end anyway. The panel felt more like fraternity brothers hazing a freshman and was downright weird
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Best Buy (Mumbai) in Jun 2025
Interview
Good and end to end was taken by CTO.
Concept and Logics behind big data and data science, GCP everything
3 rounds and more than team handling it was about technology and use cases in retail sector
Phone screening, zoom interview, technical and behavioral, final interview, then decision after a few weeks typically. Very smooth processes with one recruiter assigned to you the whole step of the way
