Being able to see the direct impact my work has on the success of the company.
Everybody is in it to win it 100%. There are no politics, no hidden animosity. Everyone sees the mission and runs towards it.
Despite being a startup, Karat lives its human-first values and offers paid parental leave and a 401k. Not to mention totally affordable health and dental insurance.
Transparency and their commitment to be human-first. Leadership really cares about their team, the candidates we serve as a company, and the impact of the interview on economic mobility for all.
It wasn't spent trying to figure out what I didn't know. In fact, I could say, I'm not great at X and I need Y to succeed and that was okay. Instead, everyone was more interesting in figuring out what value I add and matching that to the needs of the company.
