Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at NBA.
Development Manager
It was a pretty standard interview process. I spoke with the HR manager and then various members of the team. The questions were typical for the role, with some interesting follow-ups about my interests in basketball and the league.
- What is your level of knowledge regarding basketball and the league?
Senior Manager
The interview process was straightforward and relaxed, without a formal script. Given it's a small company, expect to handle diverse responsibilities. It seems like a great workplace for those passionate about sports.
- Various questions were asked during the interview.
Manager
Started with a recruiter chat, then talked to the Hiring Manager, and finally met the department's boss. The recruiter and HM were fine, but the department boss was unprofessional and rude, maybe even racist, and cut the meeting short. I knew then I wouldn't get the job. Good luck to whoever did. Everyone likes the NBA, but this boss is horrible. You don't have to hire everyone, but at least be respectful and acknowledge their skills.
- Are you interested in this job, or did you just apply because it's with the NBA?
