We screen applications as they come in, which means that we will contact candidates that matched the profile we are looking for ongoing. The first contact is usually a phone interview, and if we see you are the right candidate with the right competency and motivation, you will be invited to an interview with one of our recruiters. This interview lasts approximately one hour, and the goal is to see if your competency and background matches what our client is looking for. Afterwards, we will do a reference check, and we recommend you have two references. Next step is an interview with the client in the company you will be working at. Afterwards we, together with the client, will do an assessment of the candidates and offer the job to one of the candidates. All the candidates will get feedback after the process is ended.

And remember – you can apply for several jobs at the same time.
