Rather than looking at just CVs Karma Cans is about giving you all the information about our roles and then if you still want to apply getting through a couple of questions where we can understand your skills, rather than a piece of paper. We know it adds a little time here, but we think that the better picture that gets built around the whole of you, the better.

The process takes 3-4 weeks from reading this long document to job offer. There will be two interviews, followed by an in-office presentation where you get to meet the team.

We ask for your C.V and two references later down the line, but right now, our hiring team will only be looking at your responses, they will not have access to names and other identifiers are kept separate to prevent unconscious bias.

So if this role sounds like a good fit.....Let's take it to the next step shall we?

Provide responses to the following:

1) Describe your reasons for applying for this role, and tell us honestly what your career and development aspirations are.

2) You've got a new events client, how would you encourage them to book their events through us in the future?
