Our Hiring Process - what to expect?

At Brighte, we use AI every day, and we hire people who do too. We're looking for people who have lived or are living the AI transformation and will drive this forward at Brighte. That's why all roles include an assessment which is designed to see how you put AI to work. There's no right tool (we use Claude, but you can use whatever you're most comfortable with), and there's no trick to it - we want to see how you think. We will talk about this in more detail if you are invited to a phone screen with our Talent team.

Towards the end of our hiring process, we require all candidates to undertake references and background checks, which include a police check, anti-money laundering and bankruptcy checks.
