Still curious, now imagine yourself here....

At Symbio we believe in the Swedish model - a work/life balance we are fiercely protective of. We are a close knit group of people from all around the world. We value curiosity, honesty, openness and friendliness. There is little hierarchy and everyone is encouraged to participate in all areas of the company. We focus on each other's strengths and help those around us when in need. 

Do you like wheat beer? Do you believe coffee can never be too strong? Have a breakfast speciality you wish to try out on your co-workers? Then Symbio might be the place for you.

Why Symbio?

Because Symbio is a People Product and hiring the right person is our #1 priority 100% of the time. We work with some pretty cool companies (some you know, some you will know) which is why being talented and driven is critical too. From our point of view, the recruitment process is ground zero. 

The Recruitment Process

For this role you can expect:

• Within 48 hours we will review your application and let you know if you will move on to a phone screen or not. This phone screen is conducted by our Talent Manager and is approximately 30 minutes. Nothing tech - just about the company and you, high level stuff here.
• If you successfully complete the screen, you will be contacted by the Talent Manager again and you will have a second interview with two Project Managers. 
• Once you WOW the Project Managers, you will move on to the Final Interview! You will meet with a project team, Head of Talent & Culture and Managing Director. You can expect to be here for a half day. Use this time to get to know the team the office and see if Symbio Sweden is where you are interested in spending upcoming future in.

This entire process - from first contact to final interview - takes approximately 2 weeks. We like to move as fast as possible but synching so many schedules can take time. We promise, however, to keep you updated as often as possible and from the beginning you will have direct access to our Talent Manager. 

Symbio Sweden is a People First organisation that utilizes collective intelligence to foster a culture of growth and development where we learn from each other.

Symbio Sweden offers freedom that stands out from the stiff and strict consultancy business. Through self-leadership, our employees are empowered to plan their own time, work on side projects and choose which projects they want to work on.

Symbio Sweden utilizes design thinking methodologies and therefore is able to collaborate with clients to meet the end users needs. Symbio supports clients from idea to finished product as well as assisting the client with their "go to market" strategy.
