Frequently Asked Questions

After you submit your application, our human resources team will look it over carefully. If they think you might be a good fit, they will contact you with more information. This will include details like the company’s name, how much they will pay, and what benefits they offer. If you still seem like a strong candidate after this review, your application will then be passed along to the company for their consideration.

It typically takes about one week for us to go through all the job applications we receive. If our human resources team thinks you might be a good fit after reviewing your application materials, they will reach out to you. This means they want to take the next steps and consider you further in the hiring process. However, if you don’t hear back from us within a week or two, that likely means we couldn’t move forward with your application for this particular role.

If you need to submit an updated version of your resume or curriculum vitae (CV), just send the new file to hr@digibyn.com through email. This allows our human resources team to review your most current background information, skills, and experiences when considering you for potential job opportunities.

When sending us your resume or curriculum vitae (CV), we can only accept files in PDF format or Microsoft Word document formats like .doc or .docx. We cannot view or open resume files that are in any other format. So please make sure to save and submit your CV as either a PDF or Word document before emailing it to us.

If your application moves forward in the hiring process, someone from our team will contact you using the phone number or WhatsApp information you provided on your resume or CV. They will either give you a call or send you a WhatsApp message to discuss the next steps. This could involve setting up an interview, providing more details about the role, or getting additional information from you.

Unless the job description specifically states otherwise, any job opening or vacancy that is advertised is for an on-site position. This means you would need to work at the company’s physical office location rather than from home or remotely. If a job allows you to work from home, or has any other special arrangements, it will be clearly mentioned and explained in the job details. Otherwise, you should assume the role requires you to come into the workplace.

If the job description does not specifically mention providing accommodation, then local employees who already live in the area will not receive housing from the company. However, if you are applying from another country outside the local region, the job description will state whether accommodation or living arrangements will be provided for you. Unless it is clearly noted in the job details, you should assume that accommodation is only offered to employees relocating from other countries, not those already living locally near the workplace.

If our human resources team thinks you could be a good fit after reviewing your initial application, they will reach out to conduct a brief interview with you over the phone or online video call. During this first interview, they will ask you some basic questions to evaluate your skills and experiences further.

If the HR team feels you performed well in this screening interview, they will then pass along your full application materials to the company for deeper consideration. The company will review your information in more detail.

If the company agrees you are a promising candidate after this review, we will schedule another more formal interview for you. Depending on the role and situation, this second interview may take place virtually online or you may need to go to the company’s office location in person.
Basically, there are a couple of different interviews and reviews before a hiring decision is made. Our HR team will guide you through each step of the process if you move forward.

If you have any questions or need to get in touch with us, you can reach out through email (contactus@digibyn.com) or by sending a message on Facebook Messenger.
