Presentation Behavioral

The document review took a few weeks. After getting past that hurdle, the entire recruiting process was very professional. The final offer came after the PR's approval, which also took some time, but HR clearly outlined and communicated the process. It took a long time overall, but you get the impression that equality is taken really seriously.

Case Presentation Behavioral

I was picked up and led to a separate room. I had about 15 minutes to prepare a case and then present it, followed by a professional discussion. After that, there were personal (standard) questions about the qualities that are important for the job. And two or three classic questions about strengths and weaknesses.

Presentation Behavioral

Really friendly, peer-to-peer conversation. Not dusty like you'd expect from the civil service. Got the result right after the interview. You should prepare a little. Then it should be fine.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Could you give a 10-minute self-presentation?
  • Do you have some questions about the political system in Hamburg?
  • Let's do a role-play.

Presentation Behavioral

First, you'll have 20 minutes to prepare for two tasks: explain your experience in areas like BEM, HR Development, Psychical Risk Assessment, Consulting, or Project Work, and draft a rough concept for implementing one of these. Then, the interviewers will introduce themselves, followed by a presentation of the tasks. After that, we'll discuss your career path and I'll ask some follow-up questions. Finally, we'll cover more questions about you and your work style, and leave time for your own questions.
