How to Actually Get Hired
Who reads applications, which channel gets a reply, and what they screen for.
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
At <50 people, cubic has no recruiting team. Your application lands with a founder who is also running sales, product and payroll. The obstacle isn't a queue or an ATS, it's being seen at all. Cold outreach outperforms the form here, consistently.
Who to contact at cubic
Contact route not yet verified for cubic. For a <50-person B2B, Engineering, Product and Design company, expect a founder or department head to make the call — but this is a model, not confirmed data.
What cubic screens for
The hiring bar at this stage (, B2B, Engineering, Product and Design): relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously. Show what you've shipped.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use cubic's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
Generic CVs stand out at a <50-person company — and not in a good way. Fastest path to rejection.
Skip 'I'm looking for...' — start with is growing fast after their null round and your specific angle on solving it.
Applying and waiting = silence. Follow up at day five — it roughly doubles your odds of a reply.
