What to expect from our hiring process

• Application & review

  Once you apply through our career site, we review your application against the requirements and priorities of the role. We review applications on an ongoing basis, so you may hear from us at different stages of the process.

  If we see a potential match, we'll invite you to a first interview.

  If you haven't heard from us yet, you're still in the process. We never close a hiring process without giving every candidate who applied an answer.

• 1st interview: getting to know each other

  The first interview typically takes place online.

  We'll talk about your experience, motivation and what you're looking for, while giving you a clear picture of NORNORM, the role and the team. You'll meet the hiring manager and, for some roles, someone from HR.

  It's a two-way conversation, so bring your questions too. We want you to have enough information to decide whether the opportunity feels right for you.

• 2nd (and 3rd) interview: going deeper

  The second interview typically takes place at one of our workspaces. We think it's important to meet in person before making a decision, both for us to get to know you better and for you to experience our workspace, meet some of the people behind NORNORM and get a real sense of what it's like to work with us.

  Here, we'll go deeper into your experience and how you approach situations and challenges relevant to the role. You'll typically meet the hiring manager again, someone from HR and one or more colleagues you'd be working closely with.

  Depending on the role, there may be a third interview or additional conversations, particularly for key or senior positions.

• Cases & assessments

  For some roles, the process includes a case, a technical assessment or a personality assessment.

  If this is part of your process, we'll tell you beforehand what to expect, why we use it and how to prepare. For cases, we'll also be clear about how much time we expect you to spend.

  We use personality assessments as a conversation tool and as one input among several in our overall assessment. There's no right or wrong personality profile.

• Decision & offer

  Once we've completed the process, we'll make our decision.

  If we believe there's a strong mutual match, we'll talk through the offer, compensation and practical details before welcoming you to NORNORM.

  For some positions, we may also ask for references towards the end of the process. We'll always agree this with you first, before contacting anyone.

• A fair and transparent process

  We aim for transparency

  We'll do our best to be open about the role, our expectations, the process and the realities of working at NORNORM. We also aim to align on practicalities like timing and compensation early on, so we don't waste your time, or ours.

  Be open with us too

  We encourage the same openness from you. Ask questions, challenge us and tell us what matters to you. The goal isn't just for us to decide whether you're right for NORNORM. It's just as important that you decide whether NORNORM is right for you.

  We value your time

  If we ask you to prepare something, we'll be clear about what we expect and why. We don't think candidates should have to spend a lot of time preparing cases as part of a hiring process.

• Questions about your application?

  We truly appreciate your interest in joining us. To make sure your application gets to the right place and is considered as part of the process, please apply through our career site. Unfortunately, we're not able to accommodate individual introductions or respond to application-related messages via LinkedIn, email or other channels.

  If you have a genuine question about a role that isn't answered in the job posting, you're always welcome to contact our HR team at HR@nornorm.com.
