Our Recruitment Process

We keep our hiring process structured but straightforward, so you'll know exactly what to expect at each stage:

1. Deep Dive Interview with Recruiter - A 15 to 30 minute conversation focused on your career journey, past roles, accomplishments, and what you are looking for next. This helps us understand your background and alignment with the role.

2. Trial Project Assessment - At this stage, you'll get to demonstrate your skills through a sample project that uses real data or scenarios from our operations. This stage usually takes one of two forms.

• Audit: You may be asked to review a campaign and apply the IDS method (Identify issues, Discuss your observations, and Suggest solutions).
• Skills Output: You may be asked to create a sample deliverable that reflects the role, such as drafting a VSL script, writing email responses, or producing a short-form video.

All trial projects are covered by a simple NDA to protect both you and the company. It ensures our data remains confidential and also makes clear that your work will only be used for evaluation purposes unless we hire you or we both agree in writing with fair compensation.

We also ask that most trial projects be submitted with a short Loom video. This is not about teaching us how you did the work but about explaining why you made certain decisions and how you approached the task.

3. Final Interview with Hiring Manager - The last step is a conversation with the hiring manager. Together, you'll go through your trial project output and discuss how your experience, ideas, and working style can make an impact in the role if you're selected. This stage is less about formal Q&A and more about exploring fit, collaboration, and vision.
