When you first start working at a new company, there are things you wish you knew before joining…Like not knowing you had to climb 5 flights of stairs every day or working in an area with lots of noisy construction. So to save you the trouble, we’re sharing the 4 things you should know before joining Hiredly!1. The Interview Process: Two StagesJust like any other company, expect to go through an interview process before joining the Hiredly team.But did you know there are 2 stages of interviews for you to go through? You’ll have to pass both to land a job as a Hiredly Hiro (that’s what we call ourselves).Stage 1: Phone Screening with People & CultureThe first stage is a phone screening with our People & Culture team. This is where we get to know you better, understand your career goals, and see if you align with what we’re looking for.Stage 2: Skill-Based Interview with the Hiring ManagerOnce you pass the phone screening, the next step is a skill-based interview with the hiring manager. We will assess your skills and experience, and depending on the department you applied for, there might also be a skill test.2. Interns Are Not Expected to Make CoffeeYou know how some interns only get coffee for their seniors and do mundane tasks like photocopy documents?Not at Hiredly!Real ResponsibilitiesOur managers don’t hire interns to do paperwork or “chores” they don’t want to do. Because of this, Hiredly is where you’ll get a real feel of a working environment.Make an ImpactEven interns can make an impact at Hiredly. Interns hold real responsibilities and perform like a full-timer (with guidance from your seniors, of course).Check out what our former interns have to say about their internship experience in this article.3. Don’t Join Us If You Think We Are FunAll play and no work do not make a successful company.Flexible, But FocusedFlexible hours, casual dress codes, and informal work settings are just some of the things we do to create a happy and comfortable work environment.Work With PurposeBut do not mistake our “fun environment” for low performance. At Hiredly, we hold true to our visions, missions, and targets. We do all we can to match people to the companies they belong to!So we provide a conducive environment for our team to stay motivated and do their best work. We also trust our team to deliver their tasks without abusing our flexibility.4. Parking Is Tough to FindEver tried parking at Kota Damansara?If you have, then you know that it’s tough.Parking ChallengesBy 9 AM, the free parking outside is almost always full. In-building parking, on the other hand, is waaay too expensive for you to be paying every day.Convenient AlternativesLuckily for us, our building is located just a 15 minute walk from the Surian MRT Station. Apart from that, confirmed staff have access to subsidised parking if they choose to drive.On the bright side, finding food around here is a breeze. There are so many options to choose from. So we guess it all balances out!5. Change is the Only Constant at HiredlyIf you’re looking for a company where things stay the same forever… Hiredly might not be the right place for you.We pivot fast, fail fast, and adapt quickly to new directions. What worked yesterday might not work tomorrow, and we’re totally okay with that.We experiment, test, and refine.We believe in learning from failures.We stay focused on our mission—but the way we achieve it keeps evolving.If you love fast-paced environments, trying new ideas, and embracing constant change, you’ll thrive here! But if you’re someone who enjoys routine, repetition, and long-term predictability, then Hiredly might not be the best fit.Have we scared you off?Don’t worry, we’re sure you’ll like it here just fine!For a lot of us, Hiredly is the place we got to grow our careers in a supportive environment. Our 6 ex-interns will vouch for that.So come join us!We are always hiring ambitious, driven individuals. Check out our company profile to find a role that suits you and we’ll see you very soon!
