2. If it takes a village to raise a child, it for sure
takes a team to raise a startup.
This year we’ll have over 50,000 attendees at Web Summit,
which is down to the incredible work of our growing team who
add new faces each week to our bootstrapped startup. Web
Summit 2016 will be the largest gathering in human history
of entrepreneurs, inventors, dreamers and curious souls. But
there’s so much more we can do.
Doing more requires building our Technology, Operations, Live
Events, Sales and Communications teams.
I’m sure our greatest accomplishments are still to come - have
you got what it takes?

Unprecedented
Growth Creating
an Unparalleled
Marketplace
In six short years, Web Summit has grown from
400 attendees to over 50,000 attendees from
more than 150 countries.
“No technology
conference has ever grown
so large so fast.”
Web Summit has become “Europe’s largest
and most important technology marketplace”,
a crossroads for the world’s largest buyers and
sellers of technology, alongside many of the
world’s most disruptive emerging technology
companies.
50,000+Attendees

4. The biggest
event of its
kind...
A Pioneering
Approach:
Engineering
Serendipity
Our approach has always been different, and
that difference has propelled our growth.
We’re the first software company that creates
conferences.
While conference companies typically
hire experienced event planners, we hire
computational physicists, applied statisticians,
AI specialists and engineers. Together, we
create the best attendee experience by
approaching challenges from a technical and
mathematical perspective.
We even build algorithms that take into
account who you are and who you might
benefit from meeting. The people at your
table or on your pub crawl are neither random
nor manually-curated, but rather the product
of algorithms that ensure that you make the
life-changing connections you are supposed
to make. In other words, we “engineer
serendipity”.

10. Gintare Karalyte
who moved from London to Dublin
Event Producer, Live Events
The location of the house is superb. It’s only a five-
minute walk to the office and is close to a gym and
local shops. Plus, it helped me settle and make friends
within the company really quickly.
Who joined us from around the world
Inês Maria Marques
who moved from Lisbon to Dublin
Attendee Success Coordinator, Startups
Moving from Lisbon to Dublin, I couldn’t ask for a
smoother arrival. A few minutes from the office, close
to good shops and the best element: sharing the
house with co-workers that easily became friends.
It boosted my adaptation time and made me feel at
home since day one.
Dena Levitz
who moved from Washington D.C. to Dublin
Senior Researcher, Speakers
When I was hired to work for Web Summit I was
moving thousands of miles from my home to a new
country that I’d only been to once! Thankfully, the
company offered me a spot in the Web Summit house
while I got settled in. I wouldn’t have been able to
accept the job and relocate if the company hadn’t
done that for me.
11. Everyone should challenge themselves to work in a
startup at least once.
You’re guaranteed to grow professionally and personally as you’re always pushed
out of your comfort zone. That’s where you learn most and continue on your
journey towards a world-class career.
At Web Summit we believe in teamwork, seeking out and solving challenging
problems, bias for action, positivity and curiosity. Be ready to show these values
and qualities.
Our interview structure varies but, in general, you should expect to chat to
our talent team first who will introduce you to our business. They will use this
conversation to get an understanding of your motivation and experience, your
career goals and interests, core skillset and also to gauge whether our company is
going to be the right platform for your continuous learning.
This is followed by a conversation with a subject matter expert or a hiring manager.
Certain roles might require a technical screen, perhaps a test or simply a set of
problems for you to attempt.
Finally, you’ll explore our HQ and meet peers, your future team and possibly the
founders too. It’s a two way street for us to get to know you and for you to get to
know us. Use it as a chance to learn more about Web Summit and get answers to
any of your burning questions.
And don’t wait until then! Find out more about us now:
• Wired, CNBC, Forbes, the Financial Times and many others have written about
Web Summit.
• Our blog and Paddy’s Medium posts have a lot of useful information.
• Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram will give you a feel of our brand.
You can also follow Web Summit team members such as @MartaNarauske,
@AnnaOHare, @ThePadman, @MikeHarvey and I’m sure you’ll find more.
We’re looking forward to meeting you.
