Technically, Your Best Career Move Ever
OUR STORES:
There's nothing small about the way Micro Electronics sets up shop. The company sells computers and consumer electronics through more than 25 Micro Center stores in 16 states and an e-commerce site. The stores, which span up to 60,000 sq. ft., stock more than 40,000 products, including desktop and notebook computers from major makers (such as Apple, HP) and Micro Electronics' own WinBook and PowerSpec brands. Micro Electronics' computers are built by its International Products Sourcing Group (IPSG), which also supplies discounted computer gear.
Micro Center stores cater to tech enthusiasts with "Build Your Own" departments – which allow customers to assemble their computers from scratch – and "Knowledge Bars" up front where customers can speak with technicians. The chain distinguishes itself from its big-box competitors by stocking a wider assortment of products and employing a knowledgeable sales force.

Look at these testimonials from our previous Junior Buyers.
“To say the Junior Buyer program is thorough is an understatement. I’ve learned so much about the company and how it operates. It has truly been an eye opening experience learning how all the departments of the company work together. Going through the program with other Junior Buyers was a great help too. It allowed us to learn from one another and work together on projects throughout the course of the program. It’s been very challenging, but is by far the best career decision I’ve ever made.” – D.F
“The Junior Buyer development program has been an exciting and challenging journey. It has given me the opportunity to see how our company operates at every level and provided me with the insight and tools to be a successful buyer. I’m grateful for the experience and excited to use everything I’ve learned to help our company grow.” – Z.S.
