How does an application work?
For us, applying is all about finding the right match. We want to make sure that you feel at home with us and that your talents are fully utilised. That is why we have set up a clear, personal and involved application process. How do we approach this?
Step 1: Apply for our vacancy
Your application starts with responding to our vacancy. Let us know why this position suits you and why you are the perfect addition to our team. This will be passed on to the People & Culture department and to the manager of the department you are interested in. Together we will assess whether your profile fits the role and whether we will invite you for the next step.
Step 2: Telephone introduction to People & Culture
If your CV and motivation match what we are looking for, you will be called by someone from our People & Culture team. In this conversation, we will briefly get to know each other and discuss your background, ambitions and expectations. This helps us assess whether there is a potential match and whether you will be invited for the next interview.
Step 3: The second conversation
If the introduction is positive, we will plan a second interview, in which you will meet the team. This interview will take place at one of our offices in Berlin or Hamburg, but can also be held online if that suits you better. During this interview, you will go into more detail about the content of the position, your role within the team and what you can expect. Collegiality is very important to us, so we will ensure that you also get to know several direct colleagues.
Step 4: Assessment of practical assignment
We believe in showing what you can do. For example, if you indicate that you are good at HTML, we ask you to show this. Are you a star in writing? Then we would like to receive a blog from you. For some functions, an assessment or assignment may be part of the process, but this does not apply to all roles. This helps us to get a complete picture of your qualities.
Step 5: Discussing the employment conditions and contract
Are we both enthusiastic? Great! Then we will discuss the salary, the secondary employment conditions and a start date. Everything is recorded in a clear contract.
Step 6: Get started with a warm welcome!
You start with us with an extensive induction program. Here you get to know the organization, your colleagues, our core values, customers and stakeholders well. Your manager will guide you in this, so that you can make a flying start. We ensure that you quickly feel at home and have everything you need to be successful.
We look forward to meeting you and embarking on a successful journey together!
