Video interview/application interview

An interview is a first mutual acquaintance and takes place mainly virtually.

  • Ensure an undisturbed environment during the entire interview process.
  • Choose a neutral background and make sure it is properly lit.
  • Test the technology in advance (stable internet connection, camera, headset or microphone on the laptop, power supply).
  • Dial in to the meeting about 10 minutes beforehand.
  • Think through possible questions and possible answers.
  • Focus on the conversation and do not allow yourself to be distracted by ambient noise (mobile phone, music, TV).
  • Have a pen and a piece of paper ready to take notes during the interview.
  • Make sure you are dressed appropriately, this should also be based on the job description when getting to know each other digitally.

Assessment centre

The assessment centre takes place either virtually or in person. Most of our assessment centres are individual assessments and consist of several components.

  • Components of an assessment centre can be, for example: presentation, role play, interview, case study.
  • If the assessment centre takes place in person, please allow enough time for travel.
  • Find out about our company and current topics in advance in the press, on our website or social media.
  • If you receive an assignment in advance, invest time in preparing it in an appealing way.
  • During the assessment centre, we would like to learn more about you. Think of concrete examples to describe your skills.

This is how our current application process works:

1. Job search

You can find the right job in our Job search.

2. Applying

You will find the link for the online application in the respective job position. Simply upload your CV or apply even faster with your XING or LinkedIn profile. We do not need an extra cover letter.

3. Review of your application documents

We are interested and look forward to taking a closer look at your application. Since we also exchange information about your application with the department where you are applying, we will need some time for this.

4. Getting to know each other

If you have impressed us with your documents, we look forward to meet you. This may vary depending on the job position. For some positions, a telephone interview will take place first, for others you will be invited directly to a interview. During this interview, you will meet not only representatives from the HR Department but also colleagues from the respective department. We will inform you about the exact type of interview in advance with the invitation.

5. Feedback after the interview

After the interview, we will give you prompt feedback as to whether we have decided in your favour and what the next step will be. In exceptional cases, if interviews are scheduled for a longer period of time, it may take a little longer until this feedback is received. In this case we will of course inform you about it. After the interview you are welcome to ask our recruiters for personal feedback.

6. Contract documents and onboarding

If you also say "That works for me", we will initiate the co-determination process as soon as possible and send you your contract documents. As soon as we receive the signed contract, our pre-boarding phase begins and the department will contact you.
