Drop us a message via hello@hive.hr with your queries and the right person will get back to you as soon as they can.
We’d recommend that you make sure you’ve read the job advert fully and have done your research on the company beforehand. During the interview itself show us your motivation and ambition. Giving clear and concise answers is always best so try not to ramble. We’d also love it if you have some questions to ask us so have a couple prepared. Most importantly, be yourself!
You’ll need to bring your proof of right to work in the UK. A passport is probably easiest but here is a list of other options. We’ll remind you of this before the interview anyway.
Of course! If you need any adjustments at all please let us know. We will contact you to ask this before the interview and we’ll do whatever we can to help you succeed.
Absolutely! We treat each application as an individual application so feel free to apply any time you see something you like the look of.
