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
There's an ATS (Greenhouse), but at Latent, referrals get priority. Your cold application competes with sourced candidates and internal recommendations.
Who to contact at Latent
No verified contact route for Latent yet. Based on size (50-200) and sector (Healthcare, Healthcare IT), the hiring manager or department lead is likely the decision-maker, but treat this as a model.
What Latent screens for
For a Healthcare, Healthcare IT company, expect them to prioritize relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously over credentials.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use Latent's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
Generic CVs stand out at a 50-200-person company — and not in a good way. Fastest path to rejection.
Don't open with what you want. Open with what Latent is dealing with right now — is growing fast after their null round, and what you'd do about it.
Applying and waiting = silence. Follow up at day five — it roughly doubles your odds of a reply.
