How micro1 picks people

  1. Apply to the role, then do an interview with micro1's AI recruiter. It takes 20 to 40 minutes.
  2. Some roles add a short skills test after the interview.
  3. If you pass, micro1 asks you to finish your profile and verify your ID. You then join its certified pool and can apply to its other open roles.

Before you start

  • Plan for 40 minutes in a quiet place.
  • Have your CV and two or three examples of your own work in this field ready to talk about.

Not every applicant gets an offer. Prepare well for the interview.
