  • If your experience suits our needs, we’ll reach out to get to know you

  • Some things to consider:
  • Our entire interview process is virtual. We work with Google Meet and Zoom
  • We assess your skill set, but we’re also interested in seeing if your values and goals align with ours
  • Once we know you and you know us, it’s time for all of us to make a decision
  • We aim to make hiring decisions within a couple of days. This can be delayed if we have several people interviewing for the same role, but we’ll keep you updated. We hope for you to do the same for us
  • If there are any questions or changes, your talent acquisition partner will be available for you
  • If we decide not to hire you, you’ll receive feedback from us. If you have feedback for us as well, that’s amazing—we love to learn and improve our processes

Our take

Even today, language barriers can hold businesses back from achieving their full potential. Phrase (from Memsource) solves this problem with its translation management solution. Its cloud-based platform offers efficient automated translation. Its AI-driven approach is mainly targeted toward enterprises that typically need to translate large volumes of text.

In 2021, Memsource acquired Phrase, officially unifying both its platforms (and brands) under one integrated suite. By doing so, it enables enterprises to seamlessly drive growth with a connected ecosystem of tools.

Phrase boasts an impressive client base with the likes of Uber, Shopify, Volkswagen amongst thousands of others. IT recently brought in impressive funding, which will be used to expand its global footprint through hiring world-class, international talent.
