How to Actually Get Hired
Who reads applications, which channel gets a reply, and what they screen for.
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
With only <50 employees, Confluence Labs doesn't have dedicated recruiters. Founders review applications between running the company. The challenge isn't competition — it's visibility. Direct outreach wins.

We're still mapping Confluence Labs's hiring process. At this size (<50 people, B2B), a founder or department head typically decides, but we haven't confirmed it yet.
What Confluence Labs screens for
B2B companies at typically screen for relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously — proof of work beats pedigree.
Tailor your CV to the specific Confluence Labs role rather than sending a general one. Applications that mirror the language of the job description clear automated filters at a materially higher rate.
Mistakes that kill applications
Don't send the same CV you sent everywhere else. At <50 people it's obvious, and it's the fastest rejection there is.
Lead with their problem, not your ambition. Confluence Labs is focused on is growing fast after their null round — show you understand that.
Most B2B applications get ghosted. A day-five follow-up can double your response rate.
