Over the years, we've honed our interview process to help ensure that every team member we hire is the right fit for us and that we're the right fit for them. If we think you're a good fit, we'll get in touch and start scheduling your interviews! Depending on the role's/project's requirements, the interview process may include some differences. At the minimum

• Introductory Interview: This is where you and your recruiter will build rapport, explore your career and educational background, discuss salary expectations, role requirements, and set expectations for the interview process, specific to the position of interest.
• Technical Interview (Skills Fit): This is where we get into the nitty gritty of the project. During the Technical Interview, you'll be interviewed by the technical team to dig more into your background and technical capabilities.
• Business Interview:At this point, you've made it to the final frontier! The Business Interview is when you'll meet with Fearless leadership to dot the i's, cross the t's, and determine whether or not we'll be moving.
