The hiring process

Our Talent Acquisition team runs a first screening of all applicants based on:  

• Qualifications

Your resume guides us to make the first selection and is therefore key in your application process. Make sure it looks good and includes all relevant details of your educational and professional experience. 

At this stage, one of our talent acquisition specialists might contact you to organize a virtual interview. Thishelps us to narrow down our list of final candidates who will move to the next phase.
