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
There's an ATS (Greenhouse), but at Latent, referrals get priority. Your cold application competes with sourced candidates and internal recommendations.
Who to contact at Latent
Contact route not yet verified for Latent. For a 50-200-person Healthcare, Healthcare IT company, expect the hiring manager or department lead to make the call — but this is a model, not confirmed data.
What Latent screens for
The hiring bar at this stage (, Healthcare, Healthcare IT): relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously. Show what you've shipped.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use Latent's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
Generic CVs stand out at a 50-200-person company — and not in a good way. Fastest path to rejection.
Don't open with what you want. Open with what Latent is dealing with right now — is growing fast after their null round, and what you'd do about it.
The wait-and-hope strategy fails. Follow up on day five — response rates roughly double.
