We get to know each other during a brief chat. The main thing here is to understand:

Who you are
The path you have taken so far
What you enjoy working on
The direction in which you’d like to develop

Above all, we listen and want to understand how you think and work. This conversation focuses more on the way we work and how we collaborate.

We’ll be discussing:

How we work at pechschwarz®
What we expect from our team
How you might fit into our way of working and our culture

At the same time, you’ll get a realistic insight into how we carry out projects and what our day-to-day work is like.

Depending on the role, we’ll look through your previous work or projects together. It’s not just about the result, but above all about:

How you think
How you solve problems
How you make decisions

For some roles, there may also be a short case study.

During our final meeting, we will clarify any outstanding issues, discuss the general terms and conditions, and work together to assess whether this collaboration is a good fit for both parties.

If everything is in order, the next step follows.

Once we’ve got together, we’ll start your onboarding process and you’ll become part of our team.

We can’t wait to hear from you.
