The Recruiting Process
On your CV and cover letter, be sure to emphasize what makes you a really strong candidate. Include things such as outstanding academic results, personal projects, entrepreneurial pursuits, and so on.
If you successfully pass through our screening process, we'll invite you to take on a few tests that assess how you approach and solve unfamiliar problems. These tests don't require any prior knowledge, and they should take a few hours to complete. If you're successful there, we'll invite you to some interviews—normally two or three—to get to know each other and figure out if it’s a good fit for both parties. The interviews are held remotely, and include some behavioral and problem-solving questions. To limit arbitrariness and human bias, all Bending Spoons hiring decisions are made by a hiring committee.
