Who should I address my application to and who is my contact person if I have any questions?
If you have any questions about your application, Mr. Peter Kox is the right person to contact.
How can I apply to ConverterTec?
Please apply exclusively via the email address karriere@convertertec.com
Can I submit an unsolicited application?
For sure, yes! If there is no suitable job on our careers page, you can provide us with your documents with the subject “Unsolicited application”. Please let us know your requirements regarding tasks and salary so that we can find a suitable job for you.
How does our application process work?
Das unterscheidet sich von Stelle zu Stelle ein kleines bisschen. Jedoch gehen wir fo
This varies slightly from case to case. However, we proceed as follows:
- Checking the application documents: First of all, we in the HR team check the application documents you have sent
- First contact: If we see potential for collaboration, an initial telephone call follows to clarify the most important key facts.
- Interview: This may be followed by an invitation to our company or an appointment via Teams with the potential supervisor in order to get to know you personally. The focus is on your skills and personality (no assessment center or similar). This gives you the opportunity to get to know our company and your future colleagues and superiors.
- Commitment: If both sides are happy, the final contract will be negotiated and once signed, we can get started!
lgendermaßen vor:
- Überprüfung der Bewerbungsunterlagen: Grundsätzlich prüfen wir zuallererst im HR-Team deine eingegangenen Bewerbungsunterlagen
- Erster Kontakt: Wenn wir Potenzial für eine Zusammenarbeit sehen, folgt ein erstes Telefonat, um die wichtigsten Eckdaten abzuklären.
- Vorstellungsgespräch: Danach folgt ggf. eine Einladung in unser Haus oder ein Termin über Teams mit dem möglichen Vorgesetzten, um dich persönlich kennen zu lernen. Dabei stehen deine Fähigkeiten und deine Persönlichkeit im Vordergrund (kein Assessmentcenter o.ä.). So hast auch du die Gelegenheit unser Haus und deine zukünftigen Kollegen und Vorgesetzten kennenzulernen.
- Zusage: Sind beide Seiten happy, wird der finale Vertrag verhandelt und nach erfolgter Unterschrift kann es auch schon losgehen!
How does the interview work?
You usually have the interview with one person from the HR team and one or two of our colleagues. This is usually your future supervisor and someone from the same department. We want to get to know you in a relaxed atmosphere and give you the opportunity to tell us about yourself, explain your motivation for the job and clarify your questions. After the conversation, we will of course show you the respective work area and the entire house as part of a house tour.
How long will my application documents be saved?
After the application process, your data will remain stored in our system for a maximum of 6 months.
What documents should be included in my application?
In the first step, your CV is enough for us. A cover letter is not necessary.
Can I apply for multiple positions?
Yes! All we need is a note in your email that you are also interested in other positions.
How do I make sure my application has been received?
You will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt from us by email. Please also check your spam folder if necessary. If you don’t receive any confirmation, please contact us directly (by phone or email).
After a rejection, can I apply again at a later date?
In any case! Often it is just nuances that are the deciding factor in rejection. We would be happy if you keep an eye on our careers page and apply again.
What language skills should I have?
You will be able to put your German and English skills at at least C1 level to collaborate with us.
Can I start at an earlier/later time or part-time?
This is not possible for every position, but just let us know your wishes and we will then examine the options and do our best to find a solution that suits you and us.
What can I expect after successful recruitment?
First day of work: Approximately 1 week before your first day of work, you will receive an email from us with information about your first day of work and an induction plan from your department management. The day begins with a short introduction to organizational topics by the HR department. Your sponsor will then provide technical support in the relevant department and support your integration into the team.
Dress code: We are happy about business casual.
Topic „Du“ or „Sie“ in Germany? There is a “Du” culture at ConverterTec. For this reason, we have also opted for the “Du form” in the career area. Admittedly, this is not that easy for the first personal contact. Not everyone wants to be referred to as their first name and of course we respect that. Therefore, communication during the application process can also take place in “Sie” form if desired. At the latest when the contract is signed, we usually switch to “Du” – assuming your consent, of course.
Benefits: In addition to a pleasant working atmosphere with invaluable colleagues, modern work equipment and a strong focus on work-life balance, we enable you to develop your personal development plan in order to offer you long-term prospects at ConverterTec. For this purpose, we organize further training tailored to your needs and enable you to acquire certifications. Many of our employees have been with us since their apprenticeships and some for over 25 years, which is a sign for us that the family atmosphere is a great thing.
Feedback: We have a strong feedback culture. Every employee has at least 1 conversation with his/her superior per year. Likewise, the entire day-to-day work at ConverterTec relies on constant mutual support and strong teamwork.
What does the entire onboarding process look like?
Our goal is to optimally welcome and introduce our new colleagues. Before starting work, all employees receive detailed information by email as well as their induction plan, which prepares them for their first weeks at ConverterTec. In the first few weeks, all new employees are accompanied by their sponsor, who provides them with advice and support, making it easier to get started in the new environment.
