Removing bias from the hiring process

We’re serious about wanting to build a diverse team and we’ve looked at each stage of the recruitment process to remove biases. We’ll value you and what you’ll bring to the role, and we’ll do all we can so it’s effortless to be yourself at work.

We run a blind recruitment process and non-graduates are welcome.

We are committed to offering interviews to candidates who meet the role requirements and have lived experience of mental illness or a disability.

Ask us anything sessions

For each vacancy we run an anonymous Ask us anything sessions, where you won’t see or hear other candidates. We give a quick run-down of the role, the team, the organisation and our culture and the recruitment process and then it is over to you. You really can ask us anything – about the role, the process, our work, culture, team, flexible working policy…. or just listen to what others ask.
