Please note, we will only contact successful applicants about progressing through our interview process. In full transparency, our interview steps typically look a bit like the following:

• Step 1: Phone chat: 30ish minutes with either a team lead or someone from our People team to ensure qualifications and alignment of expectations.
• Step 2: A little bit of homework - this is a take-home assignment so take your time and don’t sweat about us looking over your shoulder while you complete it. We want to get a sense of how you think and solve problems.
• Step 3: “Panel” interview - have a conversation with the people whose team you might be working with. They want to discuss your homework and get to know you more. Team connection is super important to us because ultimately, you will work with these people every day.
• Step 4: Values chat - you’ll meet with our VP People Operations or another senior manager to ensure it’s a fit on both sides. We get it, sometimes in an interview you don’t get to ask all the burning questions - now is your chance!
• Step 5: References and possible background check - we will always ask permission and give you more details about this step after our Values chat.
• Step 6: It’s offer time!

• This process is subject to changes but we will always ensure you know what to expect and when you can expect it - we want you to feel comfortable through this process.

**Don't meet all the expectations, or experience requirements listed here? Please apply anyways!

***If you need any accommodations during the interview process (whether it be tools, time, or accessibility requests - please don’t hesitate to let us know!)
