Each of our open positions is listed on our <a href="https://automattic.com/jobs/">jobs page</a>.</p> <p>After you’ve identified the position you’re interested in, you will be required to submit an application. Depending on the role, you might see fields to submit a resume, cover letter, and a few application questions. Make sure to dedicate time and effort to all aspects of your application. Our hiring team places a strong emphasis on thoughtful cover letters and thorough responses to application questions. Once you submit your application, it goes straight into our Applicant Tracking System where a recruiter or hiring manager will review it. </p> <p>If you don’t see a job opening that matches your skills, experience, and interests, you can still share your information with us via <a href="https://automattic.com/work-with-us/job/join-automattics-extraordinary-talent-community/">our interest form</a>. We read every submission and consider each one seriously. That said, remember that you haven’t applied for a specific, open role, so you should not expect a reply.

Candidates are presented with short pulse surveys at the end of each stage. We care what you think, and hope you’ll respond to these surveys to help us continually improve our candidate hiring experience.</p> <h3 id="application-submission" class="has-white-color has-text-color has-background" style="background-color: #136395;color: #fff"><strong style="color: #fff">Slack Interview</strong></h3> <p>Depending on the role, one of the first steps in the application process is a Slack Interview. Slack is a text-based messaging platform that we rely heavily on as a fully distributed company. Automatticians use this platform as an easy way to share their ideas, interact, and engage with colleagues around the world. Because Slack communication is an integral part of our day-to-day, we use Slack interviews to gauge candidates’ ability to clearly convey their thoughts via text-based messaging. It’s also a great way for candidates to gain a sense of whether or not this way of communicating works for them :)</p> <p>We recognize that, for most candidates, this will be a completely new experience. To help prepare you for a Slack interview, see our most important tips below!</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>You’ll see Friendly Raccoon when you log into Slack. This is a tool that our developers created to facilitate Slack channel creation. We have folks across Automattic rotate to our Talent team to help with projects like this! Please note that Friendly Raccoon will not be conducting your interview, and that candidate interaction with this tool is optional.</li> <li>Don’t forget to log into Slack on time. Signing into your account a few minutes before the interview is key.</li> <li>Feel free to take the time you need when answering questions via text. We’re not timing your responses, and a thoughtful and error-free answer is better than a quick one.</li> <li>Come prepared with a few questions you’d like to ask your interviewer. We always leave time to make sure we answer any questions you have about the role, team, and working at Automattic.</li> <li>Have fun! Reflect on whether or not the style of communication you’ve experienced in the process so far plays to your strengths and set you up for success in your career at Automattic.</li> </ul> <p>For more helpful information and tips on the Slack Interview, see <a href="https://jerryjones.dev/2021/04/21/tips-for-text-based-interviews/">Jerry’s tips for text-based interviews</a><strong>.</strong></p> <h3 id="application-submission" class="has-white-color has-text-color has-background" style="background-color:#136395;color:#fff"><strong style="color:#fff">Zoom Interview</strong></h3> <p>Though the majority of our company uses asynchronous text-based communication, some of our positions require more face-to-face or verbal communication than others. For many of these roles, we’ll use Zoom interviews so we can get to know you better live. </p> <p>Each Zoom interview typically consists of a 30- to 60-minute conversation with a recruiter or a member of the hiring team, where they’ll ask questions about your past work experience and future career goals.</p> <p>Be sure to come prepared with specific examples of your achievements, learnings, and highlights from your past experiences that show why you’re a great fit for the position <em>and</em> for Automattic.</p> <h3 id="application-submission" class="has-white-color has-text-color has-background" style="background-color:#136395;color:#fff"><strong style="color:#fff">Code Test (for Engineers)</strong></h3> <p>If you are applying for an engineering role, one of the early stages in the application process is completing a code test. We will invite you to a Slack channel, and also assign a code test buddy who will take points for reviewing your work and answering any questions you have along the way. You can interact with your code test buddy however you like! The code test may involve a WordPress plugin or some other existing codebase that needs some modifications. Your goal will involve anything from extending/completing existing functionality, or making the plugin more secure and performant. We will provide you with a hosted environment to save setup time, or otherwise instructions to set things up on your end.</p> <p>The goal of the code test is to give you an opportunity to demonstrate your approach towards problem-solving, design/complexity, and also communication. We don’t expect familiarity with other platforms or frameworks (background knowledge in WordPress internals is not required).</p> <p>You can take as long as you like to complete the code test, and we intentionally don’t track anything in relation to time. We don’t track time from Automatticians, as we trust our colleagues to make the best use of their time. The hiring process is no different, and we trust you to do what is best for you. That being said, we also don’t want to take too much of your time. On average, we expect the code test will take no more than a couple of days, and this is done asynchronously over the course of approximately a week.</p> <h3 id="application-submission" class="has-white-color has-text-color has-background" style="background-color:#136395;color:#fff"><strong style="color:#fff">Trial</strong></h3> <p>All positions at Automattic involve a paid trial in the application process, which is a short project or set of tasks that will be assessed by our hiring teams. We’ve found that the best way to evaluate working with someone is to do just that! </p> <p>Trial projects vary depending on the role you are applying for, but they are based on very real areas of work within our teams. Similar to the code test, you will be assigned a Trial Guide who will provide feedback on your project and can help with any questions that come up while you’re working. </p> <p>Depending on the role you are interested in and the time you’re able to commit, the trial can last anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks. Most candidates complete the trial while working full-time and we know life is busy! Because of this, we encourage all candidates to determine their own working hours and schedule during this project. If you’re curious about specific time requirements, check in with your recruiter for additional information.</p> <p>You can read more about tips and the philosophy behind our trial project in the <a href="https://automattic.com/what-to-expect-during-a-trial/">What to Expect During the Trial guide</a> and this <a href="https://hbr.org/2014/04/the-ceo-of-automattic-on-holding-auditions-to-build-a-strong-team">Harvard Business Review article</a> (<em>Note: The HBR article is from 2014 and Automattic has grown significantly since then. We have made a few updates to our recruiting processes and our candidate volume has increased, but our philosophy behind the trial remains the same</em>).</p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:33.33%"><div class="wp-block-image is-style-rounded"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img src="https://ca.slack-edge.com/T024FN1V2-U0298N788-36f897ba298c-512" alt="A side profile of a woman in a russet-colored turtleneck and white bag.

The Final Chat is typically conducted by an executive leader within the business unit. Matt Mullenweg used to conduct these himself, but Automattic has grown significantly over the past few years!</p> <p>The main purpose of this chat is for candidates to learn a bit more about Automattic. At this point, we want to give applicants as much information as possible to ensure the position is the right next step for their career. The executive leader will typically engage candidates in a conversation about their background, interests, and motivation to join Automattic. They are also there to answer any remaining questions candidates have about the role, team, and company as a whole.</p> <h3 id="application-submission" class="has-white-color has-text-color has-background" style="background-color:#136395;color:#fff"><strong style="color:#fff">Hiring Recommendation and Executive Review</strong></h3> <p>Once you have successfully completed the Executive Lead interview, the hiring team will put together a formal Hiring Recommendation for your application. The recommendation will include your profile and resume, application questions (if applicable), feedback at each stage, and trial project submission. </p> <p>If you reach this stage, this means that the hiring team is confident you have potential to make a great impact at Automattic. This Hiring Recommendation is then submitted to our Executive Leadership and Matt for final review. You can expect this review to take anywhere from a few days to a month. During this time, feel free to continue to research Automattic, connect with the hiring team on any final questions, submit your trial invoice, and celebrate a well-done project.</p> <h3 id="application-submission" class="has-white-color has-text-color has-background" style="background-color: #136395;color: #fff">Chat with Our Human League</h3> <p>Almost to the finish line! At this stage, the hiring team has decided to extend a formal offer. A member of our HR team will message you directly via Slack to set up a time to align with you on <a href="https://automattic.com/compensation/">compensation</a> and a start date.</p> <p>During this conversation, you’ll share your <a href="https://automattic.com/compensation/">compensation</a> expectations (if you haven’t already!), and, assuming the conversation has gone well, our HR partner will extend a verbal offer, taking into account the range for the role you’ve applied for, your related experience, and additional factors.</p> <p>Following this conversation, HR will send a formal offer letter for your review and signature. Once signed and returned, a member of our onboarding team will reach out with further details to make sure you have everything you need for your first day as an Automattician! </p> <div class="wp-block-group"><div class="wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <div style="height:20px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div> </div></div> <h1 class="wp-block-heading" id="hear-from-automatticians-on-their-hiring-journey" style="line-height:1.5"><strong>Hear From Automatticians on Their Hiring Journey</strong></h1> <div class="wp-block-group"><div class="wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <div class="wp-block-group"><div class="wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <p>Curious about hearing stories and experiences from current Automatticians?
