I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Rethink Priorities in Nov 2025
Interview
The hiring team were super transparent and sweet throughout the process. They had very clear guidelines on how many stages there would be, when we would receive updates, and what the expectations were. I found it to be very informative of what an average day would look like for this position.
Very work trial-heavy recruitment process (8-10 hours total). Only one interview through the whole process, and an opportunity to meet the team in separate calls. Fairly responsive throughout the process.
