What are the next steps:

At Moment we are collaborating with UVic Co-op and Career Services to pilot a new recruitment software called Applied. Applied aims to overcome unconscious bias in recruiting. Instead of using your resume alone, we will be asking you to answer questions to test your fit for this role and skills needed for the role. The responses are then anonymized, chunked, randomized, and reviewed by hiring team members. The Applied platform also asks some demographic questions before you start your application.  Moment never sees the responses to these demographic questions with your application. We only see summary statistics to help us check if our candidate pool is balanced and if everyone has an equal chance to get hired irrespective of their background. If you prefer, you can easily opt out of answering these questions.

Once you have completed your application through the link below, you will be notified of your status in the process (selected to move forward or not). You will also have an opportunity to receive feedback on how you did relative to other applicants and to provide feedback on the hiring process.

Note that you will be able to work on your application at any time prior to the deadline or you submit. Applied will retain your responses and you can pick up where you left off. All is explained in the application process.
