SEND APPLICATION
Are all positions currently advertised still available?

We regularly update our job vacancies meaning that all those listed on our home page are yet to be filled.


How can I send my application and which documents do I need to include?

Submit your application online or through our Recruiting Tool. Applications sent via e-mail or through the post will not be considered. You should included a full CV, preferably also a cover letter, your most recent graduation certificates and certificates of any training or additional courses. You can upload your files as pdf, doc, docx, odt, rtf, txt, jpeg, gif, or png.


Who do I send my application to?

Each of our job ads includes the name of the person to send your application to.


How can I stay up-to-date on current vacancies?

Sign up to our Job Abo and receive all the latest details about new openings. All you have to do is tell us how to get in touch with you, select an area you are interested in and we’ll send you job ads via e-mail.


Can I make a speculative application?

If you can’t find the perfect job, feel free to send us a speculative application. All you have to do is tell us which area you are interested in under Speculative application. We’ll then check whether we have a vacancy that is a match for you.


Can I apply for several jobs?

You can apply for up to three jobs at once. Simply send an application for each vacancy you are interested in.

APPLICATION PROCESS
Can I update my documents?

Simply log into our recruiting tool and update or add documents.


Can I retract my application?

We all change our minds now and again. Don’t worry. You can retract your application in your profile.


When can I expect to hear back?

Your application will be processed as quickly as possible, but it may take up to two weeks to get back to you.

APPLICATION SYSTEM
Why can’t I upload my application documents?

There can be several reasons for this. 

  • Be sure not to leave the required CV upload field empty,
  • and check that your files don’t exceed 5 MB each or 19 MB all together and are not damaged.
  • Check the file format. We accept pdf, doc, docx, odt, rtf, txt, jpeg, gif and png.

If you are still having problems, feel free to get in touch via e-mail to recruiting.ch@bechtle.com.


I’ve forgotten my login details.

Click on the forgotten password link for it to be automatically reset. Your username is generally your e-mail address.


Will my application be automatically deleted?

We comply with all applicable statutory requirements for data erasure and therefore delete data after six months. We also comply with statutory retention periods. You also have the option to delete your account at any time. Go to: Search and Data Protection.


I can’t see my cover letter in my profile. What do I do?

Your cover later can be uploaded to “My documents” and then saved to your application. If you would like to send another application, you can easily replace the documents saved in your profile without deleting them from the application itself.  

VIRTUAL INTERVIEW
How are interviews being held at the moment?

In the interests of your health and that of our employees, we are now conducting the vast majority of interviews over the phone or via video call. We’ll e-mail to let you know exactly how it will take place nearer the time.


What software do you use for video interviews?

This varies depending on the department and Bechtle branch, but most interviews will use Microsoft Teams which do not require you to sign up to use it. You can dial in via your browser as a guest.


What are the technical requirements for a video interview?

All you need for a smooth interview is:

  • A PC or notebook with a webcam. Alternatively, you can use a smartphone or tablet.
  • A stable internet connection.
  • Headphones or a headset with microphone, depending on your environment.

If you are unable to meet these requirements, please contact us and we’ll hold the interview over the phone.

Be your best
with Bechtle.
