Don't worry, the application is pretty easy, it simply asks for your resume and to answer some questions to help us get to know you and your experience better. We should warn you though, if you are selected to move further in our hiring process, you will be asked to complete a second stage of the application (this is the fun part where you are asked to provide the more detailed work and education history - yes we know the struggle).
