Job Description
TEST
Agile Onboarding is a Software as a Service (Saas) tool, which provides Applicant Tracking, Onboarding and HR services to its clients. We are exploding with growth, and having fun along the way.
Our Core Values are:
1. Service: Customer Satisfaction is our #1 priority. It comes before profit and before fun.
2. Ownership: Take extreme ownership of your assigned areas, see things through to the end.
3. Fun: Make Jokes! Laugh in the face of chaos. Keep a sense of humor.
4. Modern: Pushing the edges of innovation
It's important for us to hire people who are willing to go above and beyond. If you like to work a set schedule, of 40 hours a week, and forget about work when you leave, this Company is not for you. It's in our culture to work, when needed, and be available for our customers. Because we are a small company, we need every team member to take ownership of results.
Although there are some added stresses with working in a fast-paced, small team, there are also some perks!
Here are a few of the perks you can enjoy, in exchange for your hard work:
Flexible PTO time - take time when you need it, as long as results are being done.
Annual conference - fun trip every year to recap the year, and go over goals for the next year. This is always held in a vacation-destination place!
Long term incentive - as our tool grows, our leadership team will provide bonus-incentive to our Team Members. As we grow, you will grow - technically and financially.
Privacy - our company will not ask about your vaccine status, or any other health statuses. We provide medical insurance for our people, and believe that medical privacy is important.
