Every applicant has the right to have his/her application data deleted immediately after the recruitment process has ended. In terms of data protection law, this obligation arises from Articles 5 and 15 DSGVO, according to which data must be deleted as soon as knowledge of it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was stored. The application documents will be deleted after a maximum of 6 months.

The protection of your personal data during processing throughout the application process is an important concern for us. We guarantee that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out strictly in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act and, from May 2018, the European Data Protection Regulation. You can find more information here.

We usually get back to you within the first 1-2 working days after receiving your application with at least an interim response. If we are missing relevant information for the review, we will contact you immediately in order to obtain this from you subsequently. If one of the vacant positions fits your profile, we will conduct a personal interview with you to get to know you better. Furthermore, the interview serves to give you an insight into our company and also more detailed information about the position(s) to be filled. If the journey to a personal interview involves an above-average amount of travelling or is not possible at short notice, a first meeting can also take place online.

During the interview, we analyse together how your profile fits the open position or the project. At the same time, we will discuss the concrete procedure with you and keep you up to date on the specific next steps.

During the recruitment process, we discuss the employment contract with you in detail. Afterwards, you will receive it for signature. Together we will then plan the next steps for a successful start in your new job.
