Nourish application questions — all 39, word for word
Nourish hires through Greenhouse. Beyond name, email and CV, its application form asks 39 questions, 30 of them required. 2 of them are required, fixed-choice questions about your eligibility to work. A cover letter is optional.
86 roles were open when this was last checked, mostly in sales and engineering. The questions below are the form's own wording, not a paraphrase.

37 of the questions below are ones at most two of the 212 employers measured ask (median: 13), the least standard being “Briefly describe a complex credentialing or licensing program you owned end to end. What was the scale, what did you personally own, and what measurable result did you achieve?”.
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 Nourish 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 — Nourish's asks for 30 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.
