Interviewing at PlantingSpace

While keeping the interview process efficient for both you and our own hiring teams, it is important for us to get a well-rounded understanding of the skills, work mentality, and personality of any person we hire. We also want to give you as much insight as possible into how we work and what the expectations will be, to ensure a good alignment upfront.

We are a tight-knit team of mission-driven, ambitious professionals with high levels of enthusiasm for our day to day work. If this resonates with you, we are very keen to get to know you!

Step 1

Your Application

Submit your CV and information via our website. Check the requirements and responsibilities carefully, and provide short but insightful answers to our questions.

Step 2

Interviews

Our typical schedule for technical roles (other roles will follow a custom process, depending on the area):

  • 30 minute technical screening with a member of the PlantingSpace team who is working on similar challenges to those you will encounter in the role. Expect to discuss your technical experience and how it aligns with the role.
  • 30 minute technical screening with our Founder/CTO or a relevant team member. Building on your first interview, we will discuss your skills and experience further, to ensure alignment with the role and you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions about PlantingSpace and how we work.
  • 30 minute HR check with a member of our PeopleOps team, to gain a better understanding of your professional journey and motivations. We’ll also discuss details relevant for hiring, such as any HR requirements specific to your location, your availability to start, our compensation philosophy, and more.
  • 45 minute deep dive with our Founder/CTO to go into more depth about the product, company and technology. We’ll clarify what could be your focus if you join by exploring relevant workstreams in more detail.
  • 45 minute chat with our Founder/COO to discuss your organisational experience and cultural fit, and to align on terms.

Unless we specify it ahead of time, no preparation is required for these interviews.
