Hiring process

We’re always looking for responsible professionals and team players who are willing to continuously learn and grow. The leap into our world starts with the hiring process.

Uncompromising approach to the hiring process

Developers at Leapwise hold themselves at the highest standard. Their commitment to creating high-quality, reliable and maintainable software translates into their appreciation of an engineering mindset and way of work.

This approach is what helped shape our hiring process.

The backend handbook itself originated from our internal coding guidelines, and those come into play already in the first step of the hiring process.

As they’re a reflection of our internally developed concepts, which every team member contributes to, every candidate is expected to demonstrate an ability to approach the assignment as a true engineer would.

The assignment itself reflects the seniority level indicated in the CV and is evaluated by our Tech Leads.

After their assignment is completed, the candidates have a unique opportunity to get a detailed code review and code walkthrough during the technical interview. Aside from the solution functionality, the candidates also get feedback on produced code - cleanliness, modularity and adhering to SOLID principles. Another few important things we evaluate are written tests, error handling and documentation existence.

Here’s what the hiring steps look like:

Getting in touch

Your CV is your ID Card. Send us yours and we’ll be more than glad to read it carefully.

Quick interview

If we liked what we read in your CV, we’ll invite you for an intro interview to meet in person and exchange expectations.

Assignment

Following the initial chat, we'll send you a task to evaluate your technical skills. Once completed, we'll set a date for a follow-up interview.

Code review/feedback interview

In this meeting, we'll discuss the task you completed, go through the provided code review, and discuss the assignment solution.

When it comes to selection assignment feedback, we’re always eager to provide you with as much useful information you can get, no matter the outcome of your selection process. That’s the only fair thing to do for each candidate who used their time to complete the task.

Offer

To quote a famous movie character; we’ll give you an offer you can’t refuse. Jokes aside, receiving our offer is the last step of your hiring journey. Hopefully, it’s also your first step into Leapwise.

Onboarding

On your first day, we'll give you a tour, introduce the team, and provide the equipment. During your first week, each colleague from the office will have a one-on-one chat with you, showing you the specifics of their work and answering any questions you might have.
