Hey, curious mind. Could you be a Rookie Mind?
Is helping organizations put people first what drives you? And would you love to be part of The Rookie Minds? Let’s meet! You’re more than welcome at our hub.
We’re looking for people-first go-getters. Consultants who get energy from helping organizations turn their dreams into reality. People who understand that strategy can never be separated from people, team dynamics and real conversations. People who don’t shy away from complexity, but get curious about it.
With us, you work with both head and heart. Like us, you believe that people are the key to success. And that simply by being yourself, you can inspire others, hold up a mirror and challenge them. You dare to step off the beaten path, ask the questions others swallow, and you’re just headstrong enough to give advice, even when no one asked for it.
We’re looking for people who love freedom and responsibility. People who can take care of themselves, take ownership, and still want to be part of a collective. Independent in how they work, always connected in how they show up.
Sounds like you? Then these might just be your new colleagues!
Then there’s our ‘application process’, although we prefer not to call it that. It takes as long as it takes. Because we want to really get to know each other. We’re curious about you, and we’d love to explore together whether we’re a match.
We’re not interested in your CV, you probably guessed that. We are interested in your real story. In what makes your heart beat a little faster. And we especially love people who aren’t looking for a ‘regular’ job, because you won’t find one here!
We’d love to get to know you personally. And we’ll tell you everything you want to know about The Rookie Minds. Feel a spark? Then we’ll explore further.
We’re head over heels for StrengthsFinder and we’d love to take you into the world of talent. Not to assess you, but to discover together where your unique strengths lie. What you’re naturally good at, what gives you energy, and how that fits with our work and the way we organize ourselves.
In as many conversations as we need, we explore whether there’s a match. Do you feel at home in our holacratic organization? Is there a match in vision, way of working and approach?
Yes, you read that right. Joining one of our Friday afternoon drinks is a mandatory part of our recruitment process. It’s how we get to know each other better in a more informal setting too.
Do we both give each other a wholehearted “yes” on all fronts? Then we go for it. Together, we’ll decide on a start date, your first assignment, salary and all the other practical details.
Working at The Rookie Minds doesn’t require a perfect CV. It does ask for something else: ownership, curiosity and being comfortable with uncertainty.
We’re organized holocratically. This means we share responsibility for how our internal organization works. Everything The Rookie Minds needs to run well, from finance to marketing, and from content development to onboarding, we organize together. A core group of colleagues guards our purpose and way of thinking, making sure we stay true to what The Rookie Minds stands for in the long run.
For you, this means one thing: you don’t just work for an organization, you’re part of it. You have influence, a voice and responsibility. You think along, roll up your sleeves and contribute to the collective. You take on internal roles and, in doing so, share responsibility for our organization.
Okay, “everything” might be a bit much. For that, we really do need to meet.
But we can lift a small corner of the veil. Just enough for you to decide whether you’d like to get in touch or whether you’re thinking: “lovely, but not for me.”
Let’s meet!
