So we'll be interested to talk about things like: your approach to dealing with difficult situations like dealing with conflicting or ambiguous requirements, how you communicate your work with others and how you learn new things and teach others.\n\nThe final stage interview consists of a pairing session with one of our engineers. You'll also get the opportunity to meet a couple of people from the Product org to ask any further questions.\n\nHow we assess candidates\n\nWe use a set of competencies to evaluate candidates throughout the interview process: communication, initiative, teamwork, curiosity and technical skill. You can read more about these in our blog post about our hiring framework.\n\nRecruitment Process\n\nPlease contact [email protected] if you require any reasonable adjustments or alterations to be made, to support you through the recruitment process.\n\nDiversity Statement\n\nWe value all the great benefits that diversity brings and encourage everyone to bring their whole self at work, regardless of gender, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age or disability.\n\n\nCOVID19\n\nWe encourage freelancers and people who have been made redundant as a result of COVID-19 to apply for opportunities at FutureLearn.

Because of COVID, we're in a lightning strike moment for education and we're fired up to change the way things are for high school students.\n\n## The Fiveable Team\n\nWe're a creative group of former teachers, community builders, game designers, and generally curious people who are driven by social impact.
