The brief

We are here to brighten your day a bit. We will walk you through our recruitment process, give you an idea of who you might speak with, and address all your concerns about the typical HR choreography (we also dislike the current state of recruitment).

## Intro

For many, the interview process can be pretty stressful. There are many factors: fear of rejection, the possibility of making a silly mistake, an awkward first impression and more are just some examples of things that could go wrong. In reality, you're harder on yourself than anybody else. There is a saying, "we are our own harshest critics," which is completely true, too.

We are here to brighten your day a bit. We will walk you through our recruitment process, give you an idea of who you might speak with, and address all your concerns about the typical HR choreography (we also dislike the current state of recruitment).

## Our Process

Let's get to the details. Our process is one of the more straightforward ones, and even though we don't have a universal recruitment process template, we have a standard we follow most of the time. We don't think the common practice of having four or even five stages works for us, so we limit the calls/meetings to a maximum of three (including the initial phone call). Here is how we do it:

1. **Phone call**: we first check whether there's a match between us, whether we're what you're looking for in terms of pay, company size, tech, etc., and whether you're what we're looking for as far as knowledge, experience, etc.
2. **Meeting 1:** We then move to our first video call or the first in-person meeting. We again check if there's a match between us, because that really matters. We then ask you what's important to you, and we brief you on what's important to us, our values, and more. We also want to learn a bit more about your experience, and we will briefly talk about the tech.
3. **Meeting 2:** This is the last stage. It's the call with either [Michał Dżaman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/micha%C5%82-d%C5%BCaman-a2441664/) or [Łukasz Gajownik](https://www.linkedin.com/in/%C5%82ukasz-gajownik-643015138/), where we would like to see how well you know the world of your chosen tech. We also want to see how good your analytical thinking is, so we give you a task to complete. Don't worry, it's not a live coding task (we don't make you code on a whiteboard or invert a binary tree).

In general, our process is designed to get to know you while keeping stressful situations to a minimum. There's no dress code, although you might still want to dress business casual. We also don't ask you about your favorite animal, what you want to do in 5 years, or any combination of the above. We aren't a recruitment agency, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

### Who Will Interview You?

There are four people you might see.

1. [Joanna Osuch](https://www.linkedin.com/in/joanna-osuch-517729198/)

3. [Michał Dżaman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/micha%C5%82-d%C5%BCaman-a2441664/)
4. [Łukasz Gajownik](https://www.linkedin.com/in/%C5%82ukasz-gajownik-643015138/)

## We Want You To Succeed: 5 Tips to Nail Your Interview with Us

Landing an interview is a great first step, but how do you make sure you stand out from the rest? Here are 5 tips to help your interview go well:

### 1. Be the Best Version of Yourself

We want to get to know the real you! Authenticity goes a long way. Confidence is important (see tip #5), but an interview is a two-way street. Be yourself and let your personality and enthusiasm for the job show.

### 2. Deep Dive into Our World:

Doing your research shows real interest. Take some time to explore our company website, social media channels, and even relevant news articles. Knowing what we do and what we care about lets you tailor your answers and show how you can contribute.

### 3. Honesty is Always the Best Policy

We value integrity, and that starts with honesty. Be truthful about your skills and experience. If there's something you're not sure about, it's okay to say so. We'd much rather hear your honest answer than something fabricated.

### 4. Be Prepared, Not Robotic

Prepare, but remember that an interview is a conversation, and we can usually spot AI-generated responses a mile away. Focus on understanding the questions and giving genuine answers that show your skills and how you think.

### 5. Confidence is King (or Queen), But Keep It Real

Confidence helps, but there's a fine line between confidence and overconfidence. Be enthusiastic about your abilities, but humble enough to acknowledge that there's always room to learn and grow.

These tips should help you have a successful interview and make a good impression.

## Summary/Conclusion

The interview process isn't meant to test your resistance to stress or to break you. Really. It may seem daunting, but there is nothing to be afraid of as long as you follow the tips we gave you.

If you are reading this ahead of an interview with us, we wish you the best, and once again: we want you to succeed. Good luck!
