What to expect during the application process?

BootUp's interview process consists of three interviews, plus a final assignment specific to your designation.

The review process starts once the application closes. Selected candidates will proceed to a brief phone interview conducted within two weeks of the application closure. Those candidates who make it to the second round of interviews will have a more in-depth video or phone call with the Hiring Manager and team members. After the second interview, we ask the top 3 candidates to complete a homework assignment. These finalists will be compensated for their time while they complete the project. After presenting the homework assignment, the last interview will be conducted with the Hiring Manager.

If selected, a conditional offer will be extended to the candidate. Once background checks and negotiations have been completed, we will extend the final offer and determine the start date and onboarding.

From start to finish, the hiring process takes about 6-8 weeks from when we close the job application.

Simple and Iterative

We don't like to make things overly complicated. By keeping things simple, we are able to focus on fine-tuning our approach over time in order to continuously improve what we do. This iterative process is similar to the Japanese concept of "kaizen ( 改善)," which encourages team members to think through and share opportunities for improvement.
