Currently, most interviews are conducted via MS Teams or, in exceptional cases, by phone. However, for recruitment processes involving leadership responsibilities and/or sensitive roles in certain business areas, interviews may be held in person.
We want to learn more about you, your skills, and your motivation.
The candidate and one or two colleagues from the relevant department, as well as a member of the recruitment team, will discuss various aspects of the role, and you’ll also get to know our company better.
We will also answer any questions you may have about the job or the company.
Technology: A computer or laptop with an internet connection. You should also use an updated browser, such as Firefox, Safari, or Chrome. Of course, you will need a microphone. However, using headphones with a built-in microphone would be an even better idea. Check your smartphone headphones to verify if they have a microphone.
Make sure you have the MS Teams app installed or that you can access the interview link through your computer’s browser.
Drinks: If necessary, prepare a glass or bottle of water so you can conduct the interview calmly.
Familiarize yourself with having a job interview via your computer, which may be an unusual situation for you. It might be a good idea to try it out first. We will discuss the same topics that we would if we were talking in person.
The background is an essential detail when making video calls. If the background is too bright (for example, in front of a window), it will be difficult to see you. Shelves or pictures will appear in the frame, so you should check the framing beforehand.
Dress comfortably and wear what you would wear if the interview were in person.
Stay calm, even if technical issues arise. Everything can be resolved. If there is something you don’t understand, don’t hesitate to ask and let us know if something isn’t working.
We advise you to look directly at the camera. It’s like making “direct eye contact” in a video call. Pay attention to your hand gestures and body language when you speak.
Whether you turn on the webcam of your computer or laptop is, of course, your responsibility. However, we recommend using video because the recruiters and the responsible departments will also use their webcams to establish a connection with you from the first contact.
In addition to phone calls and videoconferencing tools like MS Teams, we also use other online selection processes. There is a wide variety of interview topics that may be discussed, such as professional questions, language skills, personal matters, or a brief survey.
You can prepare for an online recruitment test or an online assessment with specialized knowledge. Find a place where you can focus without distractions. You can freely choose when to take the test (however, there is usually a preferred deadline to complete it).
There are no differences regarding the required documents: All we need is your certificate of qualifications. If you have studied abroad, you should submit it as a certified translation into Portuguese and/or Spanish, depending on the vacancy.

In principle, candidates can apply for multiple positions. However, it is important to limit the number of applications and avoid applying for jobs in too many different operational areas.
