How we hire

We hire people who are passionate about making things better. Self-starters, boat-rockers, and change-makers who love to do what's right. Not what's easy. We celebrate individuality and look for diverse, outstanding talent who will thrive at Dojo.

Our approach

Our approach to hiring is transparent, conversational, and designed to help us both get to know each other.

The best way to make an impression is to bring your whole self to the interview. Your skills and experience but also what gets you up in the morning. We want to meet you in your most authentic self.

Making it work for you

Building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture is what makes Dojo truly successful. We want everyone to be the best they can be throughout the recruitment process. If you require any additional adjustments, please speak to your recruiter.

Interview

First, you’ll speak to a member of our Talent Acquisition Team either over the phone or a video call. This is a high level chat about the role, your background and what it’s like to work at Dojo. This is an informal, 2-way conversation so bring lots of questions to find out if this is the right role for you too! During the call, we’ll cover more around the role, where it sits and how it will impact Dojo and our customers. 

Next up, your first interview with Dojo will usually be with the Hiring People Leader, whose team you’ll be working in if you get the role.

If successful, you’ll then meet more of the Dojo team (including peers and stakeholders). We may also ask you to complete assessments or technical tests as required.
