Our hiring process is designed to be inclusive
Here’s how we use Greenhouse in our own hiring process to ensure every candidate is evaluated fairly:
- Review our hiring pipelines by demographics to make sure we’re sourcing a diverse group of candidates
- Create diverse interview panels and use in-product prompts to help interviewers keep unconscious biases in check
- Use scorecards with consistent criteria and required notes to ensure all candidates are being evaluated objectively
- Be explicit about our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) and ask every candidate how they will show up for that commitment

“When it comes to a take-home assessment, candidates who stand out tend to go above and beyond, not only through thoughtful content and attention to detail, but also on format. Anything outside of text in a document will signal to me that a candidate is willing to put in extra effort.”

Candidate security is a top priority
Phishing scams target candidates applying for open roles, often posing as hiring managers and recruiters in an effort to access candidates’ personal and financial information. To protect yourself from potential phishing scams, here are a few important things to note:
When applying at companies who use Greenhouse:
Verified emails from customers using their Greenhouse account will only come from no-reply@greenhouse.io
If you receive an email from one of our customers using their Greenhouse account or another email address and want to verify its legitimacy, please reach out to the customer directly
When applying for jobs at Greenhouse:
Any communication about job opportunities at Greenhouse will only come from a Greenhouse employee with a @greenhouse.io email address – no matter where you are in the interview process
We will never ask you to provide personal or financial information as part of our interview process, including your social security number, passport information and banking information
If you believe you’ve been a victim of a phishing attack by someone posing as a Greenhouse employee, please mark the communication as “spam” and alert us right away at careers@greenhouse.io

While an interview is a good time to show how a candidate has successfully solved problems and overcome challenges, it's refreshing when people talk about what they could’ve done better. The willingness to reflect and share these learnings shows a growth mindset while embracing their authentic selves.”

Do your research
Before meeting with us, familiarize yourself with Greenhouse and find some of the people that you’ll be meeting with on LinkedIn. Knowing as much as possible about our company and who you’re going to be speaking with helps you mentally prepare for the interview.
Be your authentic self
We’re committed to creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace where everyone can be their true selves. When people feel included, they bring their whole selves to their work – and we want you to do just that, right from the start.
Offer detailed examples
Each of our interview questions assesses a certain skill that aligns to the role you’re interviewing for. An easy way to ensure your examples are relevant is to review the job description for the role and write down key attributes that you identify. Then, give detailed examples that highlight how you represent those key skills.
Embrace an all-virtual environment
At the current time, we are conducting remote-only interviews. While there are certain aspects that translate 1:1, such as email and phone calls, the all-virtual process changes some aspects of the interview process. Visit the Greenhouse blog for detailed pointers on virtual interviews.
Tell us what you need to succeed
We do our best to be flexible and are always here to listen. Let your recruiter know how to best support you with any special accommodations during the interview process.
