Our Hiring Process
- Stage 1
Recruiter review
One of our ClientEarth Recruiters will carry out an initial review of your application. At this stage we are looking for key indicators of alignment with the advertised person specification.
- Stage 2
Application questions
If you pass our initial Recruiter screening, we will share a number of additional role-specific questions with you. These will be similar to interview questions and will focus on a few of the technical aspects of the role, as well as exploring your motivations for applying for the role and joining ClientEarth. Your answers to these questions will be assessed by our review panel.
- Stage 3
Hiring Team Review
If you reach this stage, one or several members of the hiring team will review your application in more detail. They will be assessing your application to see how closely it matches the advertised person specification. We record our scores, and candidates who received the highest scores will progress to our interview stages.
- Stage 4
Online first round interview
Our first round interviews will be online via Microsoft Teams. We recommend reading these articles by WikiJob and Indeed on how to prepare for an online interview.
You will be speaking with a number of members of the hiring team, in a panel interview format. If you have not taken part in a panel interview before, we recommend you research how these work. These articles on Monster, Total Jobs, Indeed and The Guardian are all useful.
The panel will be asking you specific questions to explore how your qualifications, experience and/or skills match the person specification. Make sure you revisit the job description ahead of the interview and prepare some examples that address the criteria in the person specification.
