Company Info:

Ternary hires people, not resumes. Resumes are not part of
Ternary's
application process. Instead, applicants nominate themselves
for
consideration by going through an online interview process
and
answering a series of free-form essay questions.

At Ternary, we look for extremely talented, intelligent,
emotionally
mature, and self-aware individuals who will fit within our
unique
culture. We seek those who love what they do and have the
potential to
become masters of their craft. Traditional approaches to
hiring won't
find these top-tier individuals. The experience and specific
knowledge
shown in a resume rarely translate directly to actual skill,
and never
show talent, potential, or personality. Resumes are of
limited value
in finding the right people for Ternary.

To overcome the limitations of traditional hiring
approaches, Ternary
has crafted a unique hiring process. It begins with
free-form essay
questions, continues with phone interviews, and ends with an
extensive
and highly original in-person interview. Throughout the
process,
applicants will have ample opportunity to show Ternary
their
strengths, abilities, attitude, intelligence, and
personality.

Bringing the right people into the Ternary community is the
most
important activity we undertake. All applications and their
associated
essay questions are thoroughly reviewed. Promising
applicants are
handpicked to continue through the screening process. Those
candidates
invited for an in-person interview will spend a full day or
more with
several members of Ternary's staff, and will leave with a
thorough
understanding of Ternary's extraordinary team and culture.
