Preparing for an Interview

with ActiveCampaign

Once you’ve identified an opportunity that interests you, submit your application for our Talent Team to review. We’re eager to learn more about you and your experiences and, if there’s alignment with a current opportunity, we’ll be in touch for an introductory call. If not, keep an eye on our careers page as we are always looking for new talent.

During your interviewing process with ActiveCampaign, you will get to speak and meet with many of our great staff members. Your dedicated Talent Partner will help you navigate the interview process and a Coordinator will cover the logistics and scheduling of your interviews.

If your application is a match, one of our Talent Partners will be in touch to schedule an introductory phone interview. During the initial phone call, our Talent Partner will acquaint themselves with your experience while allowing you the opportunity to learn more about the opportunity and ActiveCampaign. Go ahead- ask questions about the opportunity, the interview process, our company culture, or ActiveCampaign in general – we are all ears! Pending the outcome of this call, we may progress through our process. If we decide not to move forward, your Talent Partner will be in touch to inform you.

This step is sometimes conducted over video and during this call you can expect to discuss your experience in-depth as well as the scope of the role that you applied for. The Hiring Manager is your resource for any questions that you have about the responsibilities and expectations of the position as well as questions about the team dynamic.

The panel is usually two to four hours worth of interviews and can be broken up over multiple days if needed. You will be speaking with a carefully curated team of panelists (one or two at a time) that you would potentially be working with on a regular basis. This is an opportunity for our teams to learn about your experience and how you embody The AC Way Factors of Success- the guiding principles we use company-wide to ensure performance excellence.

Depending on the role, you may be asked to complete a mock sales call, take-home coding product assignment, or prepare a presentation or portfolio review. This task is to help provide you with an understanding of the role expectations and will offer you a chance to exhibit your expertise.

After completing all portions of the interview process, our hiring team will debrief in order to come to a final hiring decision. Because this debrief process requires coordination of multiple schedules, it can take up to ten days for you to receive a response back on a decision. Depending on the role, you may be asked to conduct an additional meeting.

If selected for the position, your Talent Partner will schedule a phone call to discuss the offer details and ensure alignment. If not selected for the position, your Talent Partner will inform you of this update and is open to a conversation to share constructive feedback to help you better prepare for future interview opportunities.

You will receive your official offer letter documents for signature. Once we have received your signed copies, we will begin the pre-employment process where you will receive directions to complete your background check and request professional references.
