How to actually get hired at Koala
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
At <50 people, Koala 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 Koala
