3. First interview
Candidates participate in an initial interview, either in a video conference, or on the phone, or face to face. We are also trying out new technologies so we can interview people all over the world as easily as possible. One example is the Web interview: We send you an e-mail invitation with questions, you choose a time and a place to record your answers using a video conference camera. We then review your answers at a later stage.

In addition to discussing your experience and qualifications during the first interview, an HR representative assesses the competencies required for the job and checks for an overall cultural fit with the organization.

We thoroughly train our recruiters and all employees involved in recruitment to select candidates objectively and in line with our recruitment principles.

4. Second interview
Short-listed candidates are called in for a more in-depth discussion, during which the hiring manager assesses the technical competencies required for the job.

We then inform applicants whether or not they have been successful within a reasonable time frame. Where legislation allows, we do give feedback to unsuccessful candidates if requested.
