Technical Behavioral

The first step is a technical interview with the heads of Maintenance and Mechanical. Expect questions on your technical skills in mechanical engineering, mechatronics, and automation. Be ready to talk about your past projects, technical capabilities, how you solve problems, and your practical experience. Make sure to mention the tools, software, and tech you're good with. Have examples of real problems you've fixed. Show you get maintenance and mechanical processes and can use mechatronics and automation well. Also, talk about teamwork and communication. The second round is with the Director. This one is less about pure tech and more about your mindset, how you tackle problems, and your attitude. They'll want to know your problem-solving methods, how you handle tough situations, and your decision-making style. Give examples of when you showed leadership, creativity, or flexibility. Prove you can think critically, look at things from different sides, and make smart choices. Highlight your communication skills, especially explaining tech stuff to people who aren't technical. Talk about how you deal with disagreements and find solutions together.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

I had a phone chat with HR, and then they invited me to their office for an in-person interview. There, I met with the department head who gave me a rundown of the job. He really liked my portfolio and brought in the Senior Designer to check it out and ask about my skills. They were great at selling the company, and I think they were impressed with my resume and work. Sadly, I didn't make it to the next round and they let me know via email. They seemed organized and professional.

Behavioral Technical

Super nett. Man wird abgeholt und es gibt eine entspannte Atmosphäre. Zuerst stellt sich das Unternehmen vor, dann ist man selbst dran. Man redet über die bisherigen Tätigkeiten, den gesamten Werdegang, die Stärken und Schwächen, was man sich vom Job erwartet und wie es zur Bewerbung kam. Man sitzt mit einer Person aus HR und dem potenziellen Vorgesetzten zusammen. Eines der besten Vorstellungsgespräche, die ich bisher hatte.
