About our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion commitments

Semrush is an equal opportunity employer. Building a better future for marketers around the world unites people from all backgrounds. Even if you feel that you don’t 100% match all requirements, don’t be discouraged to apply! We are committed to ensure that everyone feels a sense of belonging in the workplace.

We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, creed, color, national origin, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, ancestry, physical or mental disability, or medical condition including medical characteristics, genetic identity, marital status, military service, or any other classification protected by applicable local, state or federal laws.

We don’t just lead the market—we are busy creating a world where Semrush is an unfair advantage for every marketer. Join us! At Semrush, we take a serious and comprehensive approach to hiring new people. We welcome those who are professionals in their field and passionate about their work to join our team. A “five-minute interview” or “get a job in three clicks” approach is not the way we work. During the interview, we ask candidates to talk about themselves and their background in detail. We try to discover the most important aspects about the way someone works and their personality before a job offer is made. Once the resume is received it will be reviewed by a member of the Talent Acquisition team. We try to provide feedback within three working days. Flexible approach for an interview format

We’re flexible and open for both online interviews and personal meetings at the offices. Choose the option that’s most suitable for you! In order for the online meetings to be productive, we suggest following these tips to make sure you are set up well: Join the interview from a laptop or desktop computer (not a smartphone). You may need to print something or present your screen during the interview. Please turn on your camera. Visual communication is especially important for us. Choose a quiet place to talk. Attending an interview from the street is not a good idea. Keep your phone at hand in case there are technical issues that mean we have to continue the interview by direct call. Good luck!

The Sales team at Semrush isn’t just important, it’s foundational. They are the force that drives market expansion, accelerates customer success, and sets new benchmarks in the MarTech space. Colleagues don’t just meet the moment, they shape it! Our Sales team partners with world-class marketers, SEOs, and fast-scaling businesses to help them win online.
