Interview Process

Our interview process ensures the role is the right fit for both you and our team:

Phase 1 – Initial Interview: Discuss experience, skills, and approach to proposal writing
Phase 2 – Written Assessment: 90-minute exercise (completed over 5 business days) to verify core writing skills
Phase 3 – Fit & Compensation Discussion: Confirm right fit and review compensation/benefits and decision

Application Process

All applications, whether submitted directly or through external job boards, are processed through our CRM, Workable. While Workable may provide a “right fit” percentage, 49 Solutions does not use this or any AI-generated score to screen, assess, or select candidates. Applicants should focus on demonstrating their skills, experience, and fit for the role rather than tailoring their CVs to meet an AI filter.
