• It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1-2 conversations about Vestwell, your experience, and your interests
• Next steps can vary by role, but the usual next steps are a skill or experience screen (e.g. a coding interview for an Engineer, a portfolio review for a Designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in-person interview panel after that if the screens go well
• Before making an offer, our interview process concludes with a references check stage for your recruiter to meet with a current or former supervisor and peer
• We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process
