Flock Homes application questions — all 10, word for word
Flock Homes hires through Greenhouse. Beyond name, email and CV, its application form asks 10 questions, 9 of them required. 3 of them are required, fixed-choice questions about your eligibility to work. A cover letter is optional.
7 roles were open when this was last checked, mostly in operations and engineering. The questions below are the form's own wording, not a paraphrase.
What Flock Homes has open
These are the roles the form was read from, as Flock Homes titles them, in Denver, CO, Denver, New York, or San Francisco, New York, NY, San Francisco or Denver:
- Exchange Director (Multifamily + Single Family)
- Full Stack Software Engineer
- Head of Engineering
- Property Manager (Property Management Analyst)
- Internal Wholesaler
- Property Operations Associate
- Renovations Manager
8 of the questions below are ones at most two of the 213 employers measured ask (median: 18), the least standard being “Do you now or will you ever require sponsorship to work in the United States for any employer?”.
The eligibility questions
These are required, and answered from a fixed list rather than in your own words: work authorisation, visa sponsorship or security clearance. Employers often use questions like these to filter applications automatically, but Greenhouse's public data does not say whether Flock Homes does — so treat them as the answers most likely to matter, not as a verdict. Answer them honestly either way.

Before you apply
Have the answers to the required questions ready before you open the form — Flock Homes's asks for 9 of them, and Greenhouse does not save a partial application by default. Settle the eligibility questions first — they are the ones with no room to elaborate, so knowing your answer before you start tells you whether the rest of the form is worth your time.
