They’re building diverse and inclusive teams around the world — because that’s how they create even better experiences for their merchants and their partners. And they need your help.
You don’t want just another job. Well, they’re not just another company:
Recognition: Peer recognition program and quarterly Hero Awards. They celebrate success together.
Celebrating Diversity: Internal community groups and cultural events. They celebrate our differences.

They keep things as simple as possible to get to what’s important – finding out more about you. They're broken down their hiring process into four key stages below, highlighting what to expect, their commitment to you and how to excel at each stage. Find out more about how to prepare for our interview process here.
Step 1 - Recruiter Screen - Ready for an introduction
The start of their application process is the same for all of their roles. George will want to learn a bit about you through a casual conversation. They don’t want to waste your time with overly complicated questions. Their aim is that everything they ask is essential. All information you share with us is reviewed securely and treated as confidential.
How to excel - Carefully read the requirements for the role you’re applying for and keep that in mind during our conversations. In what you write and what you say, get straight to the point. Lead with the most important thing and only include relevant details. They want to see your passion in action. Anything that shows them more about why you love what you do, they want to see it.
Step 2 - First Round Interview - Getting to know each other
We'll introduce you to members of your team during the process so you can get a feel for who you’d be working with.
Everyone who enters the interview process will be notified of a decision regarding the next steps. To help eliminate bias, they use the same, consistent criteria to measure the success of all the candidates they interview.
How to excel - When it comes to detailing your achievements, be as specific as possible and include success metrics so that we can see the scale of your influence. We love new ideas, so don’t be afraid to push the boundaries and think big when sharing your thoughts with us.
Don’t be afraid to reference what you’ve achieved as part of a team – teamwork and collaboration are essential skills here.
Step 3 - Challenge - Putting your skills into practice
Now it’s time to apply your thinking to some real-life situations. We want to see you in action by engaging in a role play. Our challenges are designed to help you show off your expertise. They aren’t there to trip you up and they’ll always be relevant to the role you’re applying
for. If there’s an element of your task that requires preparation, we’ll always give you enough notice to get ready. The time you have to complete your challenge has been given for a reason, and we won’t expect anything that’s unachievable in that time frame.
How to excel - Make sure you fully understand what’s being asked of you, and if you don’t - ask. You’ll never be penalised for doing
so. Pay attention to how you’re showing your thoughts and present your work in a way that’s easy for us to understand and engage with. Often there isn’t one singular solution to solve these challenges, so don’t get fixated on finding the correct answer.
Step 4 - Final Interview & Offer - Decision time
Once you’ve met the team and we’ve gotten to know each other, it’s time for us to both decide whether Checkout.com is the right place
for you. For candidates that make it to the final interview stage, our People Acquisition team will share any useful feedback and tips ahead of time to help you best prepare. We’ll be transparent with our feedback, both the highlights and areas for improvement.
We’ll never push you for a decision on the spot; you’ll always have the option to go away and consider it in your own time.
How to excel - Please ask us any questions at any stage of the process, including the final one. We think curiosity is crucial and welcome all questions. Keep an eye on your phone and your email to keep the communication running smoothly during this crucial stage.
If we proceed with an offer, get ready to meet our onboarding team as we transfer communications over to them to get you prepared for the best start possible at Checkout.com.
From submitting your application to accepting an offer, the process usually takes three to four weeks. It’s sometimes less depending on the role and your availability to interview.
