First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Deutsche Bahn.
Project Manager
The interview was conducted by two technical leads and an HR manager. Right after the introductory round, job and position-relevant questions were asked. They asked about my previous experience and how I work best in a team. Additionally, various approaches to solving problems were questioned.
- Could you elaborate on your hands-on experience from your previous role? Which responsibilities did you excel at, and what led to that success?
- Can you describe your experience in your last position? What were your key accomplishments, and why do you consider them your best?
- Tell us about your practical experience at your last workplace. What tasks did you excel at, and what was the reason for your success?
Project Management Intern
It started with a greeting and introduction of the two interviewers. Then they asked why I applied to DB AG. After that, there were some technical questions, an elevator pitch about my soft skills, and personal questions. Finally, they explained the role and the projects.
- Could you interpret this Excel table and diagrams? (small case study)
Project Manager
the recruiting process was disorganized. there was a lack of communication between HR and the departments, and they didn't share information, leading to an interview being scheduled twice. during the interview, I regretted accepting the invitation because they were impatient. overall, it was the worst interview experience, and it made me understand why Germans complain about Deutsche Bahn. the company organization is terrible, similar to their railway service.
