Event Details

Nerdery hosting Summer Open House for recruiting 

To recruit more interactive talent, Nerdery Interactive Labs (The Nerdery) will host an open house geared at hiring web professionals Friday, July 9. Career-minded web developers will have free reign to explore The Nerdery – the natural habitat of 125 web pros – to get a feel for the company recently ranked #8 on Minneapolis Star Tribune’s Top Workplaces list, as judged by Nerdery staff.

 


 

What: Job Fair for Web Developers and Open House for Nerdery Recruits – open positions include: PHP developers; C#/.NET developers; IA/UX developer; Objective C developer; software development manager; sales account executive.

Guests will have open access to Nerdery staff, including the leadership team, software development managers, and developers of all disciplines. Food and beverages will be served. True to form, 4:30 every Friday is BottleCap Talk, a beer-infused demo of a recent project led by its development team – part show-and-tell, part happy hour for nerds, and part Mystery Science Theater.  

In addition to being able to say with considerable pride and affection that they work at a place called The Nerdery, benefits include:

  • Two plan options for health; standard or HSA. Rate based on employee age and number of dependents
  • Vision and dental available
  • Simple IRA w/company match
  • Company paid short-term and long-term disability, 25K life insurance.
  • Vacation accrues from day 1 after 90 days of employment
  • Unlimited sick time
  • Free daily breakfast, coffee, soda, Red Bull
  • Casual but professional dress code
  • Very pet friendly
  • Right to compete for nerd glory in biannual/weeklong Pentathanerd, Winter and Summer Games (pentathanerd.com)

“Our developers have told me time and again that they’ve learned more in a matter of months at The Nerdery than at any time or place in their career,” said Tom O'Neill, vice president of software development. “Our nerds quickly build impressive portfolios of visible work for household brands while working with top creative agencies.”
