SmartBox isn't for everyone. We operate with a level of transparency that most companies don't offer and an expectation of maturity and professionalism that most candidates don't have. We acknowledge up front that we intentionally hire people who are professionals and bring a level of expertise we don't currently have. As Steve Jobs said, "“It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and then tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do.” Some candidates can't put their ego aside and know more about their area of expertise than their manager and maintain a professional relationship. Those people are not good fits at SmartBox and don't get job offers here. Our interview process is designed intentionally to weed out poor cultural fits, and we appreciate this review reminding us that our process works.
