ExDigita Team

We hire smart, highly-capable people who love working with online technology. Candidates for most of our positions take English and math tests, and we only interview those who score highly on both tests. For some positions, we ask to see a portfolio of candidates’ past work, or we test their programming skills. We look for people who are mature, responsible, dependable, trustworthy, honest, professional, and who conduct themselves with a high level of integrity.

People who are hard-working, diligent, organized, detail-oriented, pro-active self-starters, able to work without close or constant supervision are the best fit for working in ExDigita. Common sense, good business judgment, and a good sense of process flow are also important.

People working with us must desire to constantly learn new knowledge and develop their skills, because the online business industry we work in is constantly evolving, with new technology all the time.

Prospective clients may speak with our staff before committing to our services, to evaluate their technical knowledge and communications ability.
