You've got this exactly right. We're not your family. We are an employer. I think we offer a special opportunity. We give our employees a lot of freedom to structure their work day. There's no office, it's all remote.
What we're really just looking for is a healthy mix of passion and experience in the field. I believe that people do their best work when it's easy for them to wake up in the morning, they have low stress, they like their colleagues and don't hate the stuff they are working on. Even better if you're passionate about the work you're doing. That gives you a lot of energy to actually perform the work, and for us we're getting great results. This makes our company more valuable, we get more customers and revenue. We can increase your salary and you live a good life. Everybody wins, no?
So people should not try to read something into what I wrote above that's simply not there.
Tell my why you want to work at WunderGraph. Tell my why you think you'd perform good work. That's all.
Please don't write a cover letter. Keep it simple. The best of the best can say a lot with few words.
- carabiner 4y agoIs this from Chatgpt? It sounds like generic startup pablum. "We're not like other companies," proceeds to sound like every company.
- synecdoche 4y agoI don't see the issue. Why change a formula that is known to work? How is anyone to know if it's an honest description and their attitude is genuine? That's what reputation is for. Reputation is most valuable in my opinion and that goes for both potential employer and employee. If it's not available proxies may give some indication, or character evaluation by in person meeting. Does the pitch align with how the other side comes across? It's not a 100% guarantee. The rest is risk, which we can't be without.
