THE PROCESS

Long interview processes are stressful and boring, and that is not us 😉

We want to make sure that everything runs smoothly.

So here you will have three stage interviews:

1- A chat with one of our great recruiters.2- A zoom or in person chat with the Head of Solution Sales, Amanda Harrison based in London  and Head of Solution Sales,  Michael Reibing based in New York. In this stage they will ask you detailed questions about your knowledge and your experience.3- A Final Chat with our CCO (either in our office or via Zoom). ​​During this interview, further questions will be asked. We will also ask you to prepare a (very) short exercise. The goal will be to understand your PowerPoint and presentation skills. 

But don’t worry; everything will be explained to you step by step by your recruiter. 

Here is a little tip for you during those stages: 

Collaboration is extremely important to us, so don't hesitate to share your thoughts, ask questions, ask for help if needed, etc at any stages!
