WHY VEYLINX
The driving force of human civilization is our ability to trade and work together on a large scale. This requires that people understand each other's wants and needs really well. The sooner you know what people really want and need, the sooner you can determine whether you can meet that want and need. The leading cause of business failure is lack of demand and it can take a lot of time before a business realizes this. Behavioral science provides the tools and knowledge to understand what people actually value. Veylinx exists to use this field of knowledge to minimize the gap between supply and demand.
FROM ACADEMIC PROJECT TO TECH MARKET RESEARCH SCALE-UP
Veylinx started as an academic project to find the most reliable method that predicts what people will buy. Common research methods rely on what people say, which has, time and time again, shown to be unreliable. Anouar, one of the founders of Veylinx, became interested in research methods that ask people to vote with their wallet. He discovered that a small group of economists and psychologists have been using experimental auctions to generate realistic consumer insights. However, there was no easy and quick way to conduct these types of studies. Not much longer after that, Veylinx became the first online experimental auction platform.

OUR RECRUITMENT PROCESS
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
Step one: Getting to know you
During the first meeting, we want to get to know who you are. We ask questions about your expectations, preferences, and, most importantly, how you behave in different situations. We'd like to find out whether Veylinx would be a suitable environment for you and vice versa.
This is a conversation, so take the opportunity to ask us as many questions as you want.
This step should take approximately 45 minutes, and it is done online.
Step two: Show us your skills
Depending on the role you are applying for, we will give you an assignment you can work on in your own time. The assignment can be a video recording of you presenting something, doing a pitch, crafting a process, or other tasks. The assignment must be sent to us for review unless you are asked to present something in person. In that case, this meeting can take between 15 and 30 minutes.
Step three: Meet your team lead
It’s essential that you get to know your team lead and for them to understand your past experiences and future expectations. You need to understand what the role entails, what your typical day looks like, and how you can grow at Veylinx. Make sure you leave with all your questions answered. While video calls are great, we ideally would like to do this meeting in person. Forty-five minutes should be enough for both parties to ask the most important questions.
Step 4: Meet your team
You will be frequently interacting with your team. So, meeting your (future) colleagues and understanding how your work impacts them and what they can expect from you is essential. Try to get to know them and understand your role in the team even better. This step is optional and may take up to 30 minutes.
Step 5: Offer
If you made it this far, congratulations, you’re one signature away from joining Veylinx!
HOW CAN YOU SUCCEED?
- Come prepared. Do you research about Veylinx, what we do and why you would like to join.
- Ask questions. We like curious people and we encourage you to ask many questions.
- Be yourself. We look for authenticity instead of rehearsed answers. Try to be as specific in your answers as possible.
Our meetings are via Google Meets. Make sure you test earlier the connection, your microphone and speakers to avoid technical issues at the start of the meeting.
