What if...
Here are the most common questions candidates have asked over the years.
All Permanent Criteos can refer a connection for current open and permanent positions within the company. Just be careful to send your application through your referee, as we cannot count it as a referral source if you submit your application independently.
Once you have received your confirmation email, you should hear back from us within the next few weeks. We try our best to get back to every applicant as soon as we can, but for more popular positions, you may anticipate a bit of a delay.
We strongly believe open feedback culture is the key to improvement. So, we aim for authentic conversations at all stages of your experience. Transparency is the way to ensure we are the right fit for each other, so feel free to ask your interviewer if something pops into your head during the interview. It is essential to ask and double-check if you have doubts. After the interview, your recruiter is your go-to person to follow up on the process and get feedback.
Do your research! Interviewers can tell if you have taken time to do some research about Criteo, our products and our teams. You can also look up your interviewer(s) on LinkedIn beforehand so you already know more about who you will meet.
Good question! And the answer is simple: Just be yourself! The hiring process is a two-way street. So as you also get to know us, ask yourself if we are the right match for you. The most authentic you are, the best your chances are. We want people to be themselves at work, so do not waste time pretending to be someone else. We value diversity and authenticity above all else.
