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
Model ML uses an ATS, but referrals still come first. Cold applications aren't ignored — they're just behind referrals, sourced candidates, and recruiter picks.
Who to contact at Model ML
We're still mapping Model ML's hiring process. At this size (50-200 people, B2B), the hiring manager or department lead typically decides, but we haven't confirmed it yet.
What Model ML 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 Model ML 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 50-200 people it's obvious, and it's the fastest rejection there is.
Lead with their problem, not your ambition. Model ML 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.
