We're building a company with a very high density of talent. A small team of exceptional people goes further and faster than a large team of good ones, so we hire for every role as if the company depends on it, because it does. We'd rather keep a position open than lower the bar.

You'll work with people who are sharp, driven and honest with each other, who own their goals and don't stop until the number is on the board. We'll expect the same from you.

If you're looking for a pre-packaged to-do list or an easy ride, we're probably not the right fit. If you want to do the best work of your career, alongside people who push you to get better, you're in the right place.

Our values

Discover our values

  • Hard work

    We believe in hard work: the discipline it takes and the joy it brings. Effort is not a cost, it is how we build things worth being proud of.

    How we live it

    Every week we celebrate the people who closed today what could have waited until tomorrow.

  • Best ideas win

    We believe that the best ideas should win regardless of seniority. Creating such an environment requires empowering everyone.

    How we live it

    Every idea gets an idea coach: a manager who reviews it, helps sharpen it and helps it succeed, whatever the author's seniority.

  • Fail faster

    We believe that it is critical to fail more and measure those experiments. Controlled experimentation is our approach to building products that our customers want.

    How we live it

    We celebrate an experiment that was run and measured well, whatever its outcome.

  • Continuous improvement (1% rule)

    We make small things better on a daily basis. We discover how to get something done, do it, make it better, reiterate. Fast.

    How we live it

    At the weekly check-out everyone names the small things they improved, and we recognise them at the next check-in.

  • Make it simple

    We love simplicity. From product design to communication among each other we always try to simplify as much as possible.

    How we live it

    In our check-ins we celebrate the people who write, explain and design simple, clear goals, outcomes and problems.

  • Goal oriented

    We focus on the goal, not the tasks. We chase it with optimism, integrity and persistence and we don't stop until the number is on the board.

    How we live it

    We fight to reward the people who almost never miss a numeric goal.

FAQ

Questions candidates ask

Can I apply to two roles at once?

Yes. Apply to each role separately; each has its own process and timings.

Can I reapply if I was not selected?

Yes. Nothing stops you from applying again to a future role. We keep your data for 12 months after the role closes, then anonymise it, so a new application starts fresh.

Do I get feedback if I am rejected?

Yes. We tell you, and we give you a short reason.

Can I use AI in the test or case?

Yes, if you tell us how you used it. Every case is followed by a live conversation in which you explain and defend your work.

What language is the process in?

The post tells you. Most roles run in English or Italian; interviews are in the language of the team you would join.

Is remote work possible?

It depends on the role. Every post states whether it is on site, hybrid or remote.

Do you sponsor visas?

Case by case. Write to careers@hotiday.it before applying and we will tell you honestly.

How long does the process take?

We acknowledge within 2 days and you hear from us within 10 days of every completed step. Most processes take a few weeks from application to offer, depending on how many steps the role has.

What do you do with my data?

We use it only for the selection, keep it for 12 months after the role closes, then anonymise it. You can ask a person to explain a decision, contest it, or ask for deletion at any time; see the privacy notice.
