Recruitment steps

It will take us up to a few days to review your application and get back to you in an email.

If there is potential for a match, we’ll invite you to solve a few programming tasks on the Coderbyte platform. You’ll have around a week’s time to complete them.

If your solutions meet our criteria, we’ll invite you for a brief video call with Magda about your professional experience.

If your solutions meet our criteria, we’ll invite you for a ~40 min remote chat with Magda and one of our developers, to get to know you a bit better and discuss your programming tasks.

Should all go well, we’ll meet for the final step which is a 2,5h interview in our office with two developers from u2i. It will be divided into two parts. First, we’d love to hear more about your experience, and tell you a bit more about u2i. After a short break, we’ll jump into the technical part where you’ll have the chance to truly show off your skills.

Regardless of our decision, we will make sure that you receive timely feedback during each stage of the process. If it turns out that we're a great match for each other then welcome to u2i! We'll be happy to start your onboarding shortly.
