I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BASF (Berlin) in Jan 2018
Interview
Contacted by recruiter to schedule an HR interview by phone. Following week, coordinated in person interview and they brought me to Berlin for interview on transfer pricing. Met with 2 Team Leads. Went into knowledge of SAP, Transfer Pricing and software knowledge.
Die Atmosphäre ist sehr entspannt und locker, sodass man sich schnell wohlfühlt. Es werden die üblichen Standardfragen gestellt, wodurch das Gespräch strukturiert bleibt und dennoch angenehm und ungezwungen wirkt.
Sie geben sich viel Mühe.
