    Tips & Tricks to Nail Your Interviews!

    mail

    Skip cover letters!

    Since we want to keep everything fast and easy for you, we don’t want you to waste time on a cover letter – we would rather take a look at your CV and if it’s a match, we directly invite you to a chat.
    done_all

    Check your equipment

    Test your internet connection, camera, mic, and speakers beforehand. Time for each interview is limited, and we’d like to spend as much of it as possible on getting to know each other. If the interview is online, always have your camera on! It’s way easier to create a meaningful interaction if we also see each other.
    manage_search

    Do some research!

    We will give you all the information about the role & company’s culture, but it’s always nice to see how you perceive us after doing some online detective work 😉
    elevator

    Prepare an elevator pitch

    We will certainly ask you to briefly summarize your work experiences in a short overview. Think of what you’re going to say beforehand so you can fit all of the essential information in 2-3 minutes. Keep the goal of the interview in mind, and make sure everything you say is relevant to the position you’re applying for.
    fact_check

    Structure your answers

    Be specific, but don´t get caught up in details – following the STAR method can help you: Situation (set the scene and give the necessary details of your example), Task (describe what your responsibility was in that situation), Action (explain exactly what steps you took to address it), Result (share what outcomes your actions achieved).
    person_celebrate

    Let your personality shine

    It is a recruiting process, but this doesn’t mean you can’t loosen up and showcase your personality. We are looking for an authentic character and we are open to having some small talk or a funny joke thrown into the mix. This might even show us that you’re a good cultural fit. Remember, we like to have fun!
    live_help

    Be prepared with questions

    At the end of the interview, we will ask you whether you have any questions for us. Use this time to get answers to all your questions or clear out any curiosities. Always have two or three questions prepared, whether about the position specifically or about career development, upcoming projects, or organizational culture.
    event_busy

    Don’t be afraid of rescheduling

    Even if you’ve already scheduled an interview, urgent things might pop up in your schedule or you might not feel fit to attend the interview. We are all human & we treat these situations with empathy. It´s better to reschedule rather than not be 100% up to attend the interview. Simply communicate the change with your TA Manager and we will find a common solution.

    Finding Home Abroad – Relocation Stories

    We’re supporting new colleagues from all over the world to move to Hamburg, Germany – see what they have to share about their relocation experience:
    Read Relocation Article
    “Unlike other companies, justDice/applike was there for me from the beginning. After signing the offer, I got comprehensive support in getting my visa, finding a temporary apartment in Hamburg & covering travel expenses for my whole family. All of this made our relocation significantly easier and more enjoyable.”
    “Relocating to Hamburg with my family of four was a significant undertaking, but applike’s comprehensive support made the transition smooth and stress-free. From arranging our family’s transfer to assisting with residence permits, Applike’s thorough planning and financial backing ensured we felt welcomed and settled in our new home from day one.”
    “Relocating to another country is challenging, but applike group made the process significantly smoother by providing comprehensive support: from handling paperwork to offering a relocation allowance.”
    “My relocation process was supposed to be quick and easy yet we stumbled across delays from the embassy. So, the People team was extremely helpful, providing us with all necessary support with documentation, appointments, and processes; all in order to speed up the process and make sure we get to Germany as fast and as easily as possible.”
    “Moving to Hamburg was a breeze thanks to adjoe/applike. They managed every detail, from flights to accommodation, and their thorough support made me feel valued even before starting my new role. The entire experience was smooth and memorable, making my transition to this beautiful city unforgettable.”

    Recruiting FAQs

    Frequently asked questions
    How long does your recruiting process take?

    We aim to make our recruiting process as fast and efficient as possible, but the duration can vary depending on the role you are applying for. Usually we are really fast, though (less than 4 weeks).

    Can I apply for more than one role?

    Yes, if you see multiple roles open that match your skill set, you can apply for them simultaneously. Our Talent Acquisition team will review your application and contact you about the role that best seems to match your skills. 

    Can I apply for multiple companies within applike group?

    Yes, if you see multiple roles that match your skill set, you can apply for them simultaneously. Our Talent Acquisition team will review your application and contact you about the role that best matches your skills.

    I just handed in my application, what are the next steps?

    Great! Please allow a few days for our team to review your application. We will contact you with the next steps as soon as possible.

    Do I need to be located in Germany to be able to apply for your jobs?

    No, we do provide full visa and relocation support. 

    Do you help with my relocation?

    We do! You can find more information about our relocation support and the succesful relocation of our colleagues here on this website.

    What if I want to relocate together with my family?

    No problem! Our visa and relocation support does also include your partner or kids. (Please be aware that legal marriage is often times a requirement to obtain a partner-visa).

    Can I work remotely?

    If you prefer 100% remote companies, applike is not the right place for you because we strongly believe in face-to-face collaboration. However, we did implement a hybrid working model where we are in the office at least three days a week (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday) and can work remotely the remaining two days. Additionally, you get three whole weeks per year to work fully remotely if you want.

    What does hybrid working and flexible working hours mean?

    Our hybrid working approach involves being in the office at least three days a week (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday) and the option to work remotely the remaining two days. Flexible working hours mean that we work Monday-Friday, but do not have fixed working hours. Just make sure to adapt to the rhythm of your team.

    Where is your main-office located?

    The headquarters of the applike group and all its subsidiaries are located in Hamburg, Germany. We do have offices in the US and APAC.

    What is so great about your office?

    Well next to the fact that you are able to see and collaborate with your colleagues face-to-face, we have a super modern office that leave no wishes open: from Drinks & Snack, areas to work away from your desk to a fully equiped gym.

    Can I really bring my dog to the office?

    Yes, you can!

    Couldn’t find the perfect job offer?

    Nevermind! We are always interested to get in touch with new talents.
