Hiring process:

We are looking for two new colleagues: one medior, and one senior. The offer will therefore either be based on scale 9 or 10. This assessment of medior or senior, and the feedback for that, will be part of the interviews and communicated transparently throughout the process.

The application process will consist of two interviews. The first interview will be with the hiring manager where we go over a case that will be shared by email beforehand. This case is expected to be prepared before the first interview. The second interview will be together with team members. An additional personality test might be part of the assessment after the first interview.

The invites for the interviews will be send from April 3 onwards. First conversations will be scheduled from April 10 onwards.

Equal opportunities for all

The success of our organisation depends on the quality of our people and the ideas that they have. Truly surprising insights and innovative solutions for our clients result from an interplay of cultures, knowledge and experience. Diversity is therefore extremely important to our organisation.
