Kiwi.com outlines a six-step recruitment journey for candidates.

1. CV Evaluation: Initial screening of resume and cover letter.
2. Video Call: A call to learn more about each other if the candidate's experience meets requirements.
3. Practical Task: For technical roles, this can be a take-home assignment or a live coding session.
4. Interview: After passing the practical task, candidates are invited for 1 or 2 rounds of interviews to meet their future manager and learn more about the role.
5. Final Round: Before a job offer, candidates meet management and have an informal meeting with the rest of the team to discuss company strategy and meet future colleagues.
6. Job Offer: The final formal step.

The company emphasizes hiring individuals with the right skills who also align with their values. They note that every interview is slightly different due to the specific focus of each team and position. They advise candidates to be honest, be themselves, and ask questions. They typically use behavioral-based questions and sometimes include virtual assessment centers, psychometric testing, technical testing, and role plays.
