How to apply

Please complete the following form to apply for this role. A member of our recruitment team will contact you ASAP. We are currently recruiting and interviewing and we are looking at moving fast.

Our recruitment process consists of 3 stages: 

  1. Video interview to get to know you, your skills, your interests, etc. It’s the first screening to double-check that what you shared on your CV matches your real experience and skillset. It’s also the best time to explain the role and Qudo’s journey to date (approx 30 minutes)
  2. A second interview based on the presentation of a little exercise we’ll ask  you to prepare in advance. It’s not going to be “free work”, but rather an exercise that will let us understand how you approach your work. In other words: we’re looking for methodology and mindset rather than a finalised asset (approx 1 hour)
  3. A “Meet The Team” final meeting where you will meet a larger group of Qudo’s employees, so that you get an opportunity to ask more about Qudo’s culture, and understand what it’s like to work here (30-45 minutes)
