How to prepare for your values interview with Goodlord

Congratulations! You've been invited to interview for a role here at Goodlord. Your interview with us might look a little bit different to interviews you've had with other companies. That's because we split our interviews into two parts - a role-related interview (which is exactly what it sounds like) and a values interview.

Our values interview is all about making sure that our values are aligned - and that Goodlord is an environment that you'll thrive in! The interview is designed around our core values: we stand up and deliver, we set the pace, we're an open book, we bring our whole selves to work, and we listen, learn, and improve.

"Culture is super important for us and we want to be sure you're not just great at the job, but that you'd add to our company culture too," says Frankie Malpass, Product Manager at Goodlord.

Let's take a closer look at each of our values, and what you could think about to prepare for your interview.

We stand up and deliver

Goodlordians get things done. Everyone has freedom and space to be creative and do what they do best, and takes full accountability for getting their job done.

We want you to tell us about times you've stood up and delivered - at work, at school, or in your community.

We set the pace

Our ambition and desire to be thought leaders and industry experts drive us to stay ahead of the game - not our job descriptions.

We push boundaries, we shake things up, and we aim to inspire. We would love to hear about a time you've pushed yourself to succeed.

We're an open book

Transparency is key. We don’t have time for politics and there’s no red tape. We’re honest, we act with integrity, and we respect one another.

Weekly company-wide updates keep everyone in the loop and, if you want to find out what another team is working on, you’re welcome to jump into their meetings. Don't be afraid to ask us some tricky questions in your interview.

We bring our whole selves to work

Every Goodlordian brings something unique to the team - we’re open about our strengths, weaknesses, and little quirks.

We’re all in this together and leave our egos at the door. This means we want to understand what superpowers you'll bring to our team… and your kryptonite!

We listen, learn and improve

We’re daring, we take risks, and we are constantly striving to improve. We learn from our mistakes, share lessons to help us get better and welcome feedback from inside and outside the company.

Think about times that something hasn't gone quite as planned and, more importantly, what you learned from the experience.
