You have until midnight tonight to apply for our @sevensevensix Analyst position 👇 really proud of how we built an application designed to attract + hire the very best from first principles, eschewing standard VC bullshit signals.... here's a glimpse of our application

From the start, we're laying out the archetype for this role (to make sure we're not wasting anyone's time)

Now it's time ask some questions... they're designed so they're not a total waste of your time (and will also give you a chance to reflect on the career you've had so far)

This is important to us, because know that a team with more diverse backgrounds is going to outperform a team who all had the same lived experience. We want to be the best. hbr.org/2021/05/why-yo…

We don't care where you went to college, even though that's often pretty tied up into one's professional identity. What do YOU think we should know about who you are?

Again, we want to be the best - so why will your perspective make us better? Make our industry better?

In order to be successful at @sevensevensix (and I would argue, successful in tech) one needs to be a lifelong learner. Teach us something and how you went about learning it yourself.

It's an analyst role, so we want to know see you geek out about spreadsheets.

Credit to my partner @katelin_cruse and our team for creating this thoughtful application process. I hope sharing some of the thought-process helps other folks looking to hire. Apply while there's still time! (Or share it with someone who should!)
