Who Are We? We’re Booksy and we have a passion for appointments. Not only do we have a passion for appointments but we strive to make them as easy as possible. Booksy is an appointment scheduling app that helps health and beauty pros amplify their craft and run their businesses without worrying about the boring, nitty gritty details We know what you’re thinking—this is a young and fun company where happy hours are frequent and work consists of free snacks and socializing. Sounds ideal, right? Wrong. While we do enjoy the fun stuff, we take the most pride in owning our roles. Come to work and be present, engaged, and confident that the work you’re doing directly impacts the success of our company and our customers. We’ve come a long way, but we’re looking for people to take us above and beyond because we sure as hell have a ways to go. And on Thursdays, we work extra hard, because happy hour starts at 4 and we can’t be late. Before you get too attached, we want to be transparent with you. We are not hand-holders, or babysitters or a step-by-step IKEA instruction manual or a soccer dad holding a travel mug on the sidelines screaming at you to “trap, tap, and go!” We’re doers and seekers who are looking for people with grit, people who can take an inkling of direction, execute against it, and run like the freakin’ wind. We give you permission to ask for forgiveness.
