We assess potential candidates according to their skills, experience and suitability for the position. For some positions, language skills are mandatory.
The most promising candidates will be invited to attend an interview, usually with the head of the relevant department, or function and HR manager. Where a candidate is living in a different country, interviews may be arranged by telephone or Skype.
