Show us what you can do.

Skip the CV. Do a short task from the real job and let your work speak.

  1. Pick a role and apply

    Answer a few questions about yourself and the role, including what salary you're looking for.

  2. Get a short task right away

    As soon as you send your application, we email you a practical task based on the real work of the role, sometimes with files to start from.

  3. Do it in your own time

    There is a suggested time, but no deadline that locks you out. We note how long it took; we never cut you off.

  4. Send back your work and a short video

    Upload your files or links, and record a quick video walking us through what you did and why.

  5. Your application stays private

    Only the 8x hiring team sees it, plus partner companies hiring for similar roles if you say yes.
