Questions about our recruitment process
What are the opportunities for persons who did not complete their studies?
We do not regard incomplete studies as an obstacle, but rather as a chance to start something new. In the past, we have had good experiences with former students, especially in our apprenticeship programmes.
What does the recruitment process look like?
The recruitment process for our apprenticeship and study positions begins with a phone interview. Based on a positive outcome, we will then invite you either to a personal interview with the respective department or to a recruitment day. In the process, we would like to get to know you better in different tasks and interviews.
Has the recruitment process changed due to COVID-19? If so, how?
The recruitment days for our apprenticeship and dual study positions will take place digitally this year. In addition to two colleagues from apprenticeship management and a colleague from internal recruitment, the responsible mentors from the respective specialist departments will also be present online. After a brief round of introductions, we will start the morning with some information about the dual study programme and your apprenticeship at Hays. This will be followed by an open round of discussion with all participants. The topic for this will be announced in advance so that you can prepare accordingly. At the end of the half-day recruitment session, we would like to get to know you even better in an approx. 30-minute individual interview. In addition to the digital recruitment days, there is a recruitment test for the dual courses of study and the apprenticeships in office management. The selection process for the dual study program in cooperation with the IU currently takes place in the form of virtual or personal interviews in one of our locations together with the respective business department.
