Our Commitment to Applicants
We understand how nerve wracking and time consuming applying for a new job can be. We want you to feel comfortable, be excited, and have clarity in the process when applying to join our team!
At BDC, we take pride in our unique hiring process as well as our commitment to reviewing and responding to each candidate, even if we don't see a clear match with one of our current open roles. In fact, throughout the process, we strive to make sure you never go more than seven days without hearing from us.
In alignment with our transparency values, here's what happens when you apply for a position at Brooklyn Data Co.
- Kickstart Questions & Skills Assessment: Your answers to the application questions will help us understand how your experience and interests map to what we need to grow the team. As you may have noticed, we run a fairly unique application process! Our team carefully designed our hiring process to help us focus on evaluating key skills and candidate values, so uploading your resume is optional! This helps us maintain a more equitable process since candidate identification is anonymized in our applicant system. We’re less focused on where you’ve been, and more on what you can do!
- Application Review: Your application will be reviewed by our team to ensure your location is aligned with the role needs, written communication is clear and complete, and that your skills are relevant to the job. You should hear from us within a week of applying.
- Intro Chat: You’ll speak to a manager about your background and interests and get a chance to learn more about Brooklyn Data and our acquisition with Velir.
- Technical Exercise: Work on problems that reflect the job - you’ll submit your responses to a set of exercises designed to reflect the technical and communication skills you’ll need on the job. We hope it both gives us a sense of your skills and you a sense of day-to-day work at Brooklyn Data. We’ll pay you a stipend for your time so that the time (about 4 hours worth) doesn’t create an unfair barrier for any applicants.
- Team Interview: Chat with your future co-workers by phone or Zoom - you’ll chat for about an hour with a few of the people with whom you’ll be working. We'll share our key questions in advance, because we want to level the introvert / extrovert playing ground, to have you as much at ease as possible, and to make the best possible use of our time together. You’ll also have some time to ask questions of the team.
- Leadership Chat: Meet with our VP or Chief People Officer to discuss broader areas of interests within the company. They’d be happy to answer any lingering questions you may have at this stage in the process.
- References: We'll ask to speak to two or three people who can speak to your work.
- Our decision: If you’re selected, we’ll make an offer and open the avenues for communication with our team members to support you in making your decision. If you’re not selected in the current round, we promise to give you some context as to why not, if you’d find that useful. Keep in mind that we’re growing, and we expect there to be many future opportunities!
