At Mentimeter, we believe AI helps us work smarter - but it never replaces the human assessment, curiosity, and personal connection that define our culture and our hiring. We use AI as a sparring partner: to bounce ideas, bring new perspectives, support structure, and make our work more efficient. But the meaning, decisions, and interactions always come from people.
- AI does not screen or decide on candidates.
- There is no automated filtering, ranking, or decision-making in our recruitment process. Every application is reviewed by a person.
- Hiring teams may use AI to support their work - for example, to structure notes, prepare interview questions, or organize their thinking.

A platform where people feel safe, where differences are embraced, a place where you can have fun. We strongly encourage applicants who are people of color, LGBTQ+, women, people with disabilities, and/or formerly incarcerated people, and a college degree is not strictly required. In order to give everyone a voice, we need to be as diverse as our users.
