Before you start
This takes 20 to 30 minutes and asks you to do a small piece of real work. That is deliberate. We would rather read fifty considered applications than five hundred generic ones, and the questions below are the ones a resume cannot answer.
Draft it somewhere else if you prefer. The page does not save as you go.
The work
Answer these in your own words. We are reading for how you think, not for length, and a generic answer is worse than a short one.
Describe a piece of work you are proud of that is closest to what we do, and what you would do differently if you did it again.
Tell us about a time you were the one who noticed a mistake nobody else had caught. What was it, and what did you do about it?
Take something you know well and explain it in under 200 words to somebody senior who is not in your field. Pick whatever you like. We are reading for whether you can make a hard thing clear.
What do you actually do all day in your current or most recent role? Name the tools, the cadence, and the part of it you would happily never do again.
Quick questions
Ten of them, a few minutes at most. Pick the best answer. We are not testing trivia, and getting a few wrong will not disqualify you.
We use AI every day and we expect you to. Tell us honestly how you used it on this application: which tool, on which parts, and what you changed afterwards. "I did not use it" is a completely fine answer. What we cannot work with is a no when the writing says otherwise.
Tell us something unique about you that will not show up anywhere else in this application. A hobby that got out of hand, something you build or collect or compete in, a language, a detour in your career, an unpopular opinion about our industry. Or, if you have an idea for how we should be working, tell us that instead. Optional, and there is no right answer.
We use what you send here only to evaluate you for this and future roles. We do not sell or share it.
