⚠️ DON'T APPLY FOR A JOB AT TALKPUSH IF THIS IS YOU

Recruitment is one of the oldest, most established industries, and we're out to change it completely through automation. To make that dream come true, we need people with a fire in their belly who would rather deliver unpleasant truths to customers rather than slap together a quick fix. This isn't a 9-to-5 job that delivers the same experience every day, but a place where once in a while, you wake up with a burning desire to implement a new solution and to test the heck out of it.

This means that people who think sucking up to the boss or being a yes-person is the path to success, who aren't willing to stand behind their idea, even in the face of pushback, who prefer change to be predictable and gradual, won't be very happy here. They might be smart, kind, and lovely, but this isn't their pot's lid. If you're the kind of person who gets a little obsessed about a problem and can't think of anything else until you can puzzle it out, we can offer interesting challenges, an international team that will challenge you, and a mission to help millions of people get hired by focusing relentlessly on building better candidate experiences. Does this sound a little scary and overly ambitious? Good, that's just how we like it. ✨
