Eruditus

1. Application and resume screening

Candidates typically apply through Jobaaj or the Eruditus careers page, and recruiters shortlist profiles based on relevant sales, technology or operations experience. Communication skills are often assessed informally even at this stage for sales roles.

2. Recruiter screening call

A talent acquisition specialist typically conducts a short call covering background, current role, and interest in executive education and edtech, along with basic questions on compensation expectations and notice period.

3. Technical or functional interview

A senior team member evaluates coding ability, program management skills, or sales aptitude depending on the role, often through scenario-based questions reflecting real learner or program challenges.

4. Role play or case round

Sales candidates may go through a mock counselling call, while technology and operations candidates work through a practical case, with the interviewer assessing structure, empathy and persuasiveness.

5. Managerial round

A hiring manager assesses target orientation, customer empathy and fit with Eruditus's fast-paced, global education business, often asking for examples of exceeding targets or resolving learner issues.

6. HR interview and offer

The final round covers compensation, location, and joining timelines, followed by an offer letter, with HR also outlining team structure and training plans.
