FAQ

Our team wants to learn about your experience and how it relates to the position to which you are applying. You should include your detailed work experience, any projects you have led or been involved in, accomplishments, education and/or certifications.   

Don’t meet every single requirement listed in the job description? Milestone is dedicated to building a diverse workplace, so even if your experience does not align perfectly with every qualification, we encourage you to still apply. You might be a fit for other roles within the organization or we might find that we can help you quickly close any gaps.  

There are a few things you should think about when preparing for an interview at Milestone. Think about your past experience and how it relates to the role for which you are interviewing – consider how this experience would align with the position and share any successes that will help demonstrate your strengths.  

It is also advisable to research the company – review our career site, LinkedIn page and any other platforms to become more familiar with what we do and what our culture is like. An interview is a two-way street, so we advise you to come to the interview with questions for the hiring leader – we want to make sure the role is a good fit for you as well.  

 Lastly, if you know who you will be interviewing with, it might be helpful to go to LinkedIn and get to know a little about their background. Perhaps you could have worked at the same organization or have experience in common? This could be a good icebreaker and conversation starter.

For certain roles, a technical assessment will be given. Your recruiter can share more details about the format and expectations to help you better prepare. Otherwise, we’ll be asking specific questions to help us understand the degree to which you have the knowledge and experience to perform well in core facets of the role.   

Short answer, yes! Here are a few suggestions to ensure the video conference is a success: 

• Show up on time (or ideally a couple minutes early). To ensure you have a smooth entrance, make sure you have previously downloaded the correct software, if necessary. Also ensure your equipment has good video and audio quality.  

• It is best to take the virtual interview in a quiet place with no distractions so you can focus on the conversation. We also understand in a remote setting at home, you cannot always control if the dog barks or your child wants to say hello – it’s ok, we deal with the same things.  
• Make eye contact with the camera. This helps foster a sense of attentiveness and connection.  
• Print out your resume and have a notebook/pen nearby. The resume will help you remember important talking points, and the notebook will allow you to jot down notes or questions without clicking away at the keyboard.  
• Be yourself! An interview allows you to shine light on your experience and knowledge, but we also want to get to know YOU. Don’t let the screen get in the way of being expressive.  

While some of our roles are remote, many of our clients require work to be performed onsite. The job description will indicate the required job location. You can also discuss the expectations with your recruiter.
