Employee Reviews
- “It is very easy to move from area to area and get promoted if you put in the effort.”
- “The firm values input from all employees at all levels. It’s very much an open-door policy.”
- “In the Jackson Hole office, the firm supports taking time to ski in the mornings during winter. The ski resort is only about [eight minutes] away.”
- “From a business standpoint, Cirque seems to be super flexible and dynamic in relation to other companies in the industry.”
Getting Hired Here
- “After reviewing multiple resumes and letters of interest, the hiring committee selects several candidates for initial phone interviews. A few promising candidates are then invited for in-person interviews for an open position. Candidates get a chance to meet everyone in the office and talk to all the mid-level and senior staff, as well as most of the junior staff members.”
- “I had two rounds of interviews, one initial screening video call interview and one in-person interview. The whole process took a month or two since the company required a bit of time to finish up interviews and then come to a decision.”
- “The interview process is informal, but has generally followed this format: First, you have a 15-minute screening call. Second, you have a one-hour interview with a couple senior members of the firm. Third, you have a longer interview that rotates through most members of the office.”
- “The ideal candidate is dynamic and able to adapt quickly in accordance with different case requirements. We need someone who is detail oriented and can produce high-quality work in a consistent manner.”
