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
At 200++ people, GrubMarket gets flooded with applications. Most roles fill via internal moves or referrals before external candidates are considered. The portal alone won't cut it.
Who to contact at GrubMarket
No verified contact route for GrubMarket yet. Based on size (200+) and sector (B2B, Supply Chain and Logistics), a recruiter or hiring manager is likely the decision-maker, but treat this as a model.
What GrubMarket screens for
The hiring bar at this stage (, B2B, Supply Chain and Logistics): relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously. Show what you've shipped.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use GrubMarket's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
Generic CVs stand out at a 200+-person company — and not in a good way. Fastest path to rejection.
Don't open with what you want. Open with what GrubMarket is dealing with right now — is growing fast after their null round, and what you'd do about it.
The wait-and-hope strategy fails. Follow up on day five — response rates roughly double.
