Woovi Hiring Process

One of the most requested pieces of information by people interested in working at Woovi is how our hiring process works. This post intends to show the hiring steps and characteristics we seek in potential employees.

Steps

Our hiring process is divided into two main phases: The interview phase and the challenge phase.

Both phases have their own particularities. Let's talk a little about each one below.

Challenge
The challenge phase is the initial phase and it starts even before the first interview. At Woovi, it's important that the candidate has an understanding of what we do and our purpose. One can find such type of information in our Landing Pages.

The practical challenge is related to the applicant's skills and the open positions, and are usually dynamic and abstract.

You, as the applicant, could receive our default challenge or something tailored for you. You can take a look at our fullstack challenge here.

The challenge will be evaluated according to the seniority level you decide to apply for.

Junior

For example, If you apply for a junior position, we expect that you manage to move along the right path of the challenge (I'm not sure what you meant by right path), and that you behave proactively by asking, chatting and interacting on the channel we provide.

We expect that you do because we encourage that you publicize your learning in public

Mid-Level

For a mid-level position, we expect that you fulfill the same criteria on the junior position, but with more assertiveness, proactivity, and knowing how to find solutions to the problems you could encounter during the challenge.

Senior

For a senior position, we expect that you can complete our challenge effortlessly, even if you came from another coding language.

For example, if you came from Python, it wont be a problem to learn javascript knowing the concepts behing code programming.

• Data modeling (discuss and tradeoffs)
• Architecture
• Programming proficiency
• Know concepts: immutability, pure function, state machine, event driven, crud, async vs sync
• Written communication

We also assume you will be able to troubleshoot issues that might get you stumped. You should be able to also design part of our Architecture, so you can how the senior-level employee prepares themselves to develop new features.
