Our application process is outlined roughly below.

Preamble

We want to apologize in advance if this process seems...imposing.  We have put considerable thought and refinement into each one of these steps in an effort to make sure our hiring process is as well crafted as our software. 

And just like software, hiring is a lot more complex than it might seem on the surface.  Our hiring process is far from perfect (like our software), we are still learning and tweaking, but we want to assure you that each of these steps gives us crucial information regarding you and your development abilities that is essential for helping us to determine if this is a good match.

Consider this: our entire process is less than a week's worth of effort to make sure that where you spend the next 1-5 years of your life is a good fit.  We hope that's worth the investment.

Keep in mind that we have deliberately structured our process so that the earlier stages require less effort.  Our hope is that if you make it to the later stages, where the time commitment increases, you will have had a chance to get to know us a bit better so you can decide if the time investment on your part is worth it.  We care about your time (and ours) and make every effort not to waste it!

If at any step we don't feel like it's a good match, we'll let you know promptly. We ask that you do the same for us.

Application Steps

Note

Our interview & skills assessment process is in flux. We've left the outline below intact, for now, so you have some reference for how we'd like to operate.

All interviews and skills tests can be done remotely through a combination of Zoom and Slack:

  1. Evaluate resume and initial email correspondence
  2. Technical skills questionnaire
  3. Technical Interview (1 hour)
  4. Skills Test 1 (paid)
  5. Skills tests - phase II: project-based skills test: we give you a small project description and you build the best app you can (paid)
  6. Skills tests review interview: 2-3 hours on a Zoom meeting with our dev leadership team to get to know you and review your skills test results
  7. Collaborative work day:
    • As close to a typical work day as we can get. We just want to see what it's like to work with each other.
    • We'll assign you work based on a previous real-world project we performed This is a sample project, we're not using candidates for free or cheap labor.
    • We will be available via Slack or Zoom throughout the day to talk through the work and assist you as needed.
