Our goal this year is to double the projects & double the team. We believe that with you on-board and with our mentorship and support, this goal is going to become a reality!

  • Joining events, and representing the company - we believe that personal relationships are a really strong instrument for growth. You'd be sourcing, researching and joining events where our target customers are. The goal is to establish relationships with prospective customers, clients and partners. Usually, these events are afternoon / evening drinks in different offices across the city. You'd be expected to join 2-4 events per month.

It does NOT have to be tech-related, it can be within any field or industry that you feel comfortable in. Your goal is to demonstrate how you'd work with real clients while using your selling skills. This will also demonstrate how you prepare for a call and what kind of research you do - all crucial skills for the job.
  • [Meeting 2] - We'll also ask you to prepare a certain business development & lead generation plan, which you think would be the most efficient for the job. We'll ask you questions and try to understand your reasoning and execution plan. There are no wrong answers; This is an assessment of your strategy, planning and execution capabilities.
  • [Meeting 3] - A final chat with both founders - Q&A, summarising the previous steps, feedback.
