How We Hire. Part 2

Part 2 of our How We Hire series takes a closer look at our application and interview process. 👩💻

I applied for a job. What happens next?

1. Your application is registered in our recruiting database. The recruiter reviews new applications for the position every 2–3 days, which is when they’ll see yours.
2. The recruiter will evaluate whether your experience aligns with the position in question. If they think your application is a good fit, they’ll pass it on to the hiring team or reach out to you to ask for more information.
3. If the hiring team is interested, we’ll set up an interview with you within 5 business days. Because we receive a large number of applications, we can't promise to reach out to every applicant if we decide not to move forward with their application. Anyway if you've indicated that you'd like us to keep your resume on file, we will reach out in the future if a position arises that aligns with your experience.

On average, this process takes about 5–7 business days as we receive over 100 applications every day. We’re working on optimizing this process and are hoping to cut our response time down to 3 business days.

Will there be a test assignment?

Usually yes, but it depends on the position. Test assignments are most often based on real cases our team has faced in the past and are sent to the applicant after the introductory interview.

Who will interview me and how many interviews will there be?

Interview stages may differ across departments, but usually it boils down to these three:

1. An introductory interview with the recruiter or hiring manager to get to know you, your experience, and your goals. 
2. A technical interview to delve deeper into your hard skills. Usually at this stage the interviewer will discuss your test assignment or assign one to you.
3. A final interview with the hiring manager to focus more on the soft skills required for the position. 

After each stage, we'll be in touch within 3–5 business days. The final decision is made by the hiring manager.

How long does it take from initial contact to get an offer?

It varies depending on the job, but usually the journey from initial contact to getting an offer takes about 4–6 weeks. If we decide to make you an offer you will have a meeting with the recruiter or hiring manager to discuss the terms of the offer and start date. If all goes well, we’ll see you soon after! 🙂
