Working at Estrid
We're building something different
Something magical is happening here. It’s impossible to describe in just a few words, but Estrid is a dynamic place filled with energy, passion, and dreams. We don’t know where we'll be 20 years from now, but one thing is certain: We would not have gotten this far without the creativity and dedication of a small group of brilliant people that create magic every day.
Our journey
Art and science, courage and naivety, failures and aha moments - these are the vital ingredients to our success. The Estrid journey has been packed with highs and lows, and it's like a never-ending growth spurt. In just a short time we have scaled from an ambitious three-person start-up to a team of over 70, launched in 12 markets, built a community of like-minded people, gathered a team of exceptional talent – and we're just getting started.
Make a real difference
We're proud of the work we've done so far, but there's so much more to do. So much more, and we want it to do it better, bolder and in even more unexpected ways. We're reaching for the stars and beyond, and to get there we need amazing people. People who are passionate, ambitious, smart, and kind. People who aren’t afraid to dream big and challenge the status quo. People from different backgrounds, with different approaches and world views. People that want to make a real difference.
We're humbled that you took the time to check us out. If what you just read makes you feel excited, reach out! We can’t wait to hear from you. If it’s a match, we will shake up entire industries and embark on a mission to create kind and revolutionary brands of the future — together.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Tell me more
-
Grab your resume and CV and tell us why you think that we would be a great match! To try to keep the whole process as unbiased as possible we will ask a few candidates, that match the requirements for the role, to complete an assessment test.
-
Our people team reviews each application narrowing down the search to a handful of key candidates based on the application material submitted. A lot of thought and time goes into considering who will be asked for an interview.
Our interviews happen in stages, depending on the role and how senior the position is. The process can include anywhere between 1-4 interviews. The first meeting is typically casual, it’s an opportunity for us to get to know each other and ask any burning questions.
We’ll meet over video (or a phone call) and we will mostly talk about your experiences, skills, and how you and Estrid could be a match made in heaven ☁️
Remember that you can ask as many questions as you want!
-
Waiting to hear about a job can be stressful. We get it. This is why we do our utmost to ensure that the process is as frictionless as possible and provide candidates with an answer as soon as possible and keep candidates updated on the process.
-
Waiting sucks, but some things just can’t be rushed. We try to get back to all candidates within a few weeks. Sometimes the sheer amount of applications or some unforeseen change in our growing company makes us lag behind and the waiting time will be a lil’ bit longer. But, we will always get back to you 💜
-
A gut feeling is usually a good thing, but not when it comes to expanding our team. When we hire we focus on potential and competence, that’s why some parts of our process are done anonymously, with the support of assessment partners. Our tests, take about 15 min each. There is one logic test and one personality test both set up by an external partner.
If we think your profile matches our requirements we’ll send you a link to the tests as a first step in the process.
Ps. Only the recruiter, will see your results.

Getting the right person, at the right time, for the right position is not an easy thing to do. Finding people that can master the Estrid way is tricky. To make sure we understand your full potential we use case as a part of the final step of our recruitment process. It’s basically there to make it easier for us to understand your skills and for you to be able to fill in any potential gaps in your portfolio or experiences. Nothing too fancy or complicated, and nothing that takes hours and hours to complete. Just something that gives us an idea of you as our next colleague.
This request will only be sent to the final applicants. The case is only viewed for recruiting purpose and never shared internally.
-
Maybe things didn’t work out this time. A no doesn’t mean that we didn’t like your personality, that your case wasn’t good enough, or that something went south during your interview. It just means that right now it wasn’t a perfect match. Maybe the timing was off or we needed a very specific skill set. You’ll do other great things instead!

We're always looking for new talent to join us, and yes, we’re growing quickly! But our growth speed also means that sometimes the needs for a specific role change mid recruitment process. Sometimes a role is open for application for a long period of time, and as long as it’s open you are free to apply.
