WE WANT TO GET TO KNOW YOU
The recruitment process is a 3 parter. You are interviewing us as much as we are you and we will cover the important stuff, but also dig into the interesting stuff:
- The written work: Submit an up to date CV (yours ideally) and a cover letter. This should explain, in no more than 300 words, why you think you are the ideal candidate
- An initial interview: We will then want to chat in person, on Skype or on the phone to see if we think you would thrive at Threshold
- The final test: If you make it through this far we’ll ask you to complete a task relevant to your role and come in to present it. We will also get you to meet a range of the team from senior and junior levels. Come armed with questions for us as well.
