Labs is where people who applied to join Automaark do a short, practical assessment for their role. About an hour of real work, at a time you choose, with the tools you'd actually use, including AI.
Automaark builds production software, AI systems, automation and go-to-market infrastructure for clients. What matters day to day is picking up something you didn't make, working out what's really going on, and doing it properly.
Interviews reward talking about that. Labs lets you show it, with the tools you'd really use, and treats everyone applying for a role exactly the same way.
| Time | About an hour, depending on the role |
| When | Any time before the deadline in your email |
| AI tools | Allowed and expected |
| Scoring | Same written criteria for everyone in a role |
| After | A 30-minute call if you're shortlisted |
Your invitation email says which one is yours. Each page explains what you'll do, what we look for and what you'll need.
You do a small piece of the actual job, on realistic material, the way you would on a normal day.
We care how you reason, what you prioritise and what you check, not whether you remember an answer.
Use the tools you would use at work. We want to see you move fast and catch their mistakes.
Short notes on what you did, what you'd do next and what you're unsure of. Plain English beats polish.
Everyone applying for a role gets the same assessment and is scored against the same written criteria.
About an hour, at a time you choose. The clock only starts when you press Start.
Use the personal link in the email from careers@automaark.com.
Check you have what your role's page lists. The clock hasn't started.
Work through the tasks. Save or push as you go; partial work counts.
Or let the clock run out. We review what you've done at that point.
If you're shortlisted, a 30-minute call about your own work.
Open the link in your invite email again, or continue your assessment.
