Stage 1

Applied

Thank you for choosing Square One. Once you submit your resume and cover letter through our portal, our talent team dives in to learn about your skills, experiences, and unique perspective. We review every application personally. If this matches the qualifications that we have listed on the job posting, we will set up a phone interview to know more about your experience and expectations.

Stage 2

Phone Interview

If there’s a potential match, we'll jump on a quick call with you. This will be a 15-30 minute phone call where we explore your qualifications, knowledge and experiences. This chat will also explore on your expectations and answer any questions you may have about the role.

This stage is all about the fundamentals: your career goals, our company culture, and the high-level details of the role. Think of it as a casual conversation to see if we’re speaking the same language.

Stage 3

Assessments

We believe in your resume, but we love seeing your craft in action. Depending on the role, this might be a cognitive assessment, personality quiz, technical coding challenge, a creative brief, or a situational case study. We design these to be relevant and respectful of your time—focusing on the real-world problems you’ll actually be solving with us.

Stage 4

Final Interview

This will be the final interview. We get to dive into the "how" and "why." You’ll meet with our hiring manager or perhaps a future teammate. We’ll discuss specific technical challenges, walk through your past projects, and give you a real sense of what a day in the life looks like at the office.

Stage 5

Offer

Once we’ve seen what you can do, and we want you on the team, we’ll extend a formal offer detailing your compensation, benefits, and other details. We’ll walk you through the fine print and answer any lingering questions to make sure you’re as confident in us as we are in you.

Stage 6

Hired

It's official! Once the paperwork is signed, our onboarding team takes the lead to ensure your first day is seamless. From setting up your tech to meeting your mentor, we’re dedicated to making sure you have everything you need to hit the ground running.
