Application documents

As a general principle in regards to the form your application should take, we ask you to apply online even if you are applying speculatively. We treat postal applications equally, although processing is somewhat more time-consuming and cumbersome. Please do not send any individually addressed e-mail.

If you are expressing interest in an advertised position you should always indicate the reference number and the medium through which our advertisement came to your attention.

Very generally, we would ask you to be patient if you are awaiting a reply from us. We need up to four weeks to contact you because we normally perform some cross-checking and investigate alternative employment opportunities within our company.

Applying online is straightforward and professional

You can access the Online Application Form and all relevant explanatory information under Applying online.

 

Please be sure to submit a detailed application with an informative application folder.

  • Your application documents should include a cover letter profiling yourself and your job expectations, probably your curriculum vitae and copies of your academic certificates and references, and possibly also additional comments
  • How did you learn about our company and the vacant position? We would like to learn something about your motivation for applying
  • Be sure to enclose copies of all relevant certificates and transcripts from schools, universities, internships as well as employment references etc. In the case of non-German academic records, you should include an explanation of the grades that will enable us to interpret them correctly
  • You should provide a differentiated assessment of your language skills since they will be an important subject of discussion in your interview: knowledge from school or basic knowledge, (very) good knowledge or a level strong enough to conduct negotiations the latter means a sound command of technical business terminology and the linguistic niceties that are essential for doing business with clients
