Mistakes that kill Kapitus applications

• ✕

  Don't send the same CV you sent everywhere else. At people it's obvious, and it's the fastest rejection there is.

• ✕

  Lead with their problem, not your ambition. Kapitus is focused on is growing — show you understand that.

• ✕

  Don't apply and wait. The median Fintech application gets no response ever. One follow-up at day five roughly doubles reply rates.

We don't yet have verified candidate reports for Kapitus. What follows is the typical process for a -person Fintech company, so treat it as a model, not confirmed detail.
