How we hire

Our hiring process is deliberately designed so that you can put your best foot forward. We want to see what you're capable of, so there are no trick questions, no "gotcha's", no brain teasers, and no on-the-spot coding tests. Instead, we will help you prepare for every step. Here is what to expect:

  1. Your resume will be screened by a real person.
  2. You will be notified by email if you're selected for an interview. We usually do this on a rolling basis, so expect something within a few business days!
  3. The first interview will be with company leadership and will focus on cultural fit. We will ask about how you like to work, what your passions are, and how you got to where you are today.
  4. If you're selected for a second interview, we will contact you by email. This interview will be about how your skills relate to the position we're hiring for. You will meet with the team that you'd be working with. We will send you interview topics ahead of time - we want you to shine so that we know what you're capable of.
  5. If you're selected to move ahead in the process, we may ask for references and perform a background check.
  6. Sometimes a third interview is needed. If that's the case, we will let you know.
  7. After a candidate has been selected, we contact anyone who was interviewed to let them know. Job searches are stressful, so we don't want to leave you hanging.
