Test Automation Lead
We have a few questions for you… Are you making a difference today at work? Convinced you have a higher purpose and can do better? Spending more time asking for permission than creating results? News Flash - Then you’re a natural for Yello and we want you!
A few years ago, that’s EXACTLY how we felt and how Yello was born. In just a few years, through a lot of hard work, a ridiculous passion for our space (that would be recruiting), and a bunch of incredibly super talented yet personable teammates, we’ve become the dominant recruiting technology at event-centric recruiting events (yup, we coined the term “event-centric”). What’s that you ask- are we involved in cutting edge mobile based recruiting? Yup, we pretty much invented recruiting solutions for this space and we even have a patent to back it up.
Our clients range in size from many of the world’s best known and globally focused companies to companies just getting out of gate. Translation – lots of stability for you but in a fast-paced solution focused environment where tomorrow’s solutions that were envisioned yesterday are being developed today! And we’re not ashamed to say that many of our teammates receive love letters from their clients – yes, the professional type of love letters. It’s because of Yello, that our clients get to go home a little earlier, have more time to spend with friends and family, and often look really smart in front of their bosses - so they thank us, and that just makes our day.
Make no mistake about it – working hard at Yello comes with the territory but it’s not a “death march” type of environment. In fact, we’ve got a really casual work environment, a cool office with one of the best views in the city, along with perks and benefits that are designed to promote work/life balance. Flexible work arrangements, sports league teams, free snacks and “beverages”, professional development programs, regular social events, discounted gym membership, matching 401K – we’ve got you covered. And whenever Jason and Dan, our co-founders, are in the office, they’re always approachable and interested in what’s going on in your world. You might even see one of them at the local karaoke bar now and then, but not to worry as they’ve been told not to quit their day jobs.
We’ve taken time to tell you a little about ourselves because we think we’ve got a good thing going. If you strongly believe that who you choose to spend the majority of your waking hours creating the future with plays a significant part in your life story, than you should really consider a career with Yello.
