There were a few different free response questions on Applied, no need for a CV. Apparently these are anonymously reviewed to be unbiased.. I don’t know what steps come after that.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Startmate (Sydney) in Sept 2024
Interview
Had to submit a hands-on set of case questions on a platform that promotes non-biased hiring. Questions were relevant to the role. Got emailed a few weeks later to schedule an interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you tell us about a professional strength and weakness of yours
