What Happens After You Apply

After submitting your application, you’ll receive an email invitation from Spark Hire to record a short 3–5 minute Intro Video. This is the first step in our hiring process and can be completed whenever it’s convenient for you.

Instead of multiple screening calls, you’ll have one opportunity to introduce yourself, discuss your experience with Power BI, Power Platform, Azure, and business application development, and explain how you’ve built automation workflows, integrated business systems, and delivered scalable solutions. You’ll also have the opportunity to showcase your problem-solving approach, technical expertise, and experience working with business stakeholders. Your video will be reviewed by the hiring team before moving forward to the technical interview.

You can record your video as many times as you’d like before submitting it—only your final version will be reviewed.

Please keep an eye on both your inbox and spam folder for your Spark Hire invitation after applying.
