How we hire — our run of show
No black holes and no endless rounds. Here's the run of show, so you know exactly what's coming and when:
- Screening & Resume Review: Our Talent Acquisition team will evaluate all resumes and select candidates for a video screening call for 30 minutes.
- Hiring Manager Interview (30 minutes): Meet with the hiring manager to speak in detail about your relevant experience and learn more about the role.
- Cold Call Interview (45 minutes): Show off your skills in a cold call demo with our team.
- Meet More of the Team (30 minutes): Meet more team members to learn more about the work culture and expectations.
Every interview is held face to face over Microsoft Teams with a member of our team on camera. If we interview you, we will tell you whether a hiring decision has been made for this role within 45 days of your last interview.
How we use artificial intelligence in hiring
We use AI in one place only. Our hiring team may use Microsoft Copilot to transcribe interviews and draft interview notes, so that interviewers can concentrate on the conversation instead of typing. You will always know before any recording or AI note-taking begins, and you can ask us to take notes manually instead — it will not affect your application.
We do not use AI to screen, assess, rank or select applicants, and no automated system makes a hiring decision at any stage. Every shortlisting, interview and offer decision is made by people on our hiring team.
Equal opportunity, inclusion and accessibility
Diversity and inclusion have always been at the core of our values at AudienceView. A diverse workforce with wide perspectives and creative ideas benefits our clients, the communities where we operate, and all of us as colleagues. We welcome applications from qualified people of every background.
How to spot a genuine AudienceView offer
AudienceView does not offer employment to anyone without first ensuring that qualified candidates speak directly with a member of the hiring team. All qualifying conversations take place face to face over Microsoft Teams. We do not make offers of employment without meeting candidates, we never make an offer by text message, and we never ask candidates to pay a fee. If you are asked for personal or financial information by text, or before you have met a member of our hiring team, please disregard it.
