How to Apply

Update your CV - we don't need to know your marital status or shoe size, but we would like to know your education details (with grades!) and your employment history - where did you work, when and what did you achieve while you were there?

Send us an email to jobs@mydeco.com - attach your CV and tell us which job you're applying for (if you're applying on spec, tell us what kind of job you're looking for). Also tell us why you want to work at mydeco, and how you think you could add value to our team. Finally, let us know about an achievement that you're really proud of - what did you do personally and how did you make a difference?

What happens next?

You'll get an automatic response initially just to let you know that we've received your email. This will be followed by proper contact as soon as we've read your application and decided if we can take it further.

There are generally three stages to the interview process. Firstly, our HR Manager will give you a call, run through the job in a bit more detail and give you the chance to ask any burning questions. Then we'll bring you in to meet the hiring manager, and possibly a couple of other people in the team. We might ask you to prepare a presentation or talk us through your portfolio(depending on the role you're applying for). If you can win over the hiring team, then we'll ask you to come in and meet the Chief Exec and more of the team (we like you to meet as many of us as possible so that you know what you'll be letting yourself in for).

We'll keep in touch with you at every stage, with as much feedback as we can. If you're successful at the interviews, it's down to you to decide if you want us as much as we want you...

Looking forward to hearing from you!
