At Amaris, we care about offering our candidates the best recruitment experience possible. We seek to better know and understand our candidates, to challenge them, and to share our impressions as quickly as possible. Here is what our recruitment process looks like:

First Contact: Our process usually starts with a brief virtual/phone conversation to learn more about you! The goal? To get to know you, understand your motivations, and ensure we offer you the best-suited position!

Interviews (on average, the number of interviews is 3 - it may vary depending on the seniority level required for the position). During the interviews, you will meet members of our team: your direct manager of course, but also others with whom you will be working. These interviews will allow us to learn more about you, your experience, and your skills, but also about the position and what will be expected of you. Of course, you will also get to know Amaris: our culture, our history, our teams, and your career opportunities!

Case Study: Depending on the position, you may be asked to take a test. It could be a role-play, a technical assessment, a problem-solving scenario, etc.

As you know, each person is different, and so is each role in a company. That's why we need to adapt accordingly, so the process can sometimes be somewhat different for everyone. That said, we always put ourselves in the candidate's shoes to offer them the best possible experience. We can't wait to meet you!
