Hiring process

Our hiring process is designed to increase diversity. To be able to measure how successful we are, we ask you for your gender and age. This information is processed anonymously and allows us to understand how diverse our candidate pipeline is and where in the process we still need to work to minimise the effect of unconscious biases.

Instead of a motivation letter, we ask you to answer some role-related questions. Your answers are anonymized and shuffled and are scored by several people independently. CVs are not very informative about people's actual skills. That's why we only look at them in a second step and give them less weight. The written application via the online platform (Applied) is followed by a short telephone interview and two rounds of interviews with members of your future team and our management.

In order to ensure anonymity, we ask you to formulate your answers in such a way that no conclusions can be drawn about your person. Thank you very much! We look forward to receiving your application.

Skribble explicitly welcomes applications from all genders, people with and without migration experience as well as people with and without disabilities.
