Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

- A genuine strong interest/passion in digital media, advertising or technology

The recruitment process
Step 1: Apply and get started!
Step 2: Show us your skills and strengths – complete some fun, interactive tasks through our assessment tool delivered in partnership with Arctic Shores. Look out for this in your emails following your application!
Step 3: A quick chat with a recruiter to get to know you better and for you to ask any questions and let us know if you require any adjustments.
Step 4: Join us for a virtual assessment centre where you can showcase your skills and strengths.
Step 5: We’ll give you feedback, post assessment day, whether or not we move forward with your application.
🌟 What to Expect from the Arctic Shores Assessment
As part of our selection process, we use an Arctic Shores game-based assessment to help us understand your natural strengths in a fair, engaging way. This isn’t a quiz about what you know, it’s about showing how you think, behave and solve problems in real time.
What it is
A series of interactive tasks (games) designed to measure problem-solving, decision-making, adaptability, focus and other work-relevant behaviours.
You won’t see typical questions, instead, you’ll play activities that look and feel like simple games.
How it works
You’ll receive an email with a link and simple instructions.
Before the official assessment you can try a practice task so you’re confident with the format.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
The assessment usually has around 7-9 tasks and should take about the same time as a standard online test.
Tips to succeed
- Choose a quiet, distraction-free space with a reliable device.
- Read the instructions carefully before starting each activity.
- Be yourself - Arctic Shores is designed to capture how you naturally approach challenges, not what you think is the “right” answer.
After you finish
Candidates receive a personalised feedback report that explains what your responses suggest about your strengths - valuable insight whether you join us or not.
There are no right or wrong answers - your results simply help us understand where you’ll thrive. Approach it with confidence and focus on performing consistently throughout each task.
